Since its release last month, Vampyr from developer Dontnod Entertainment has been entertaining players with a deep and immersive vampire-focused tale set in the early 1900s, and now the game’s first major update has arrived with several changes in the works.
Publisher Focus Home Interactive has announced that a new update has gone live for Vampyr across PS4, Xbox One, and PC, which marks the game’s first official patch since the game released back at the beginning of last month.
The patch itself addresses a number of bug fixes within the game (including a critical crash error in the PC version), while also implementing a few smaller new features, such as a fix for the Recovering Icon and the ability to toggle the walk functionality.
More details on the specific changes and bug fixes from the developer can be found in the full patch notes below.
