After the day one patch with version numbers 1.0.2828.0 (GOG) and 1.0.2829.0 (Steam) respectively, Piranha Bytes has released the first further patch for Elex. The Patch with version number 1.0.2846.0 (Steam) should be downloaded by the Steam client automatically. Players who have bought the game on GOG or consoles apparently have to wait a little longer though.
The 712MB big patch fixes many of the reported bugs, like graphics bugs on AMD Radeon cards, some quest bugs and AI problems. You can find the full patch notes on Steam or in this news by clicking on "Read more"!
