Hinterland’s beautiful survival game The Long Dark released on PlayStation 4 earlier this week, and as noted in our review, it’s having a pretty rough start. There’s a ton of technical issues from crashes to items disappearing. Some of these have now been addressed in the game’s latest patch, Version 1.03. Creative Director Raphael van Lierop said that the team is “continuing to fix additional issues as quickly as we can,” and thanked players for their patience.
Here’s the full patch notes via Hinterland’s forums:
* Added missing translations for Trust dialogue
