Overview
- Game Science released patch 1.000.020 on October 13 across PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, delivering wide-ranging performance optimizations and warning that installed mods may cause instability.
- The PS5 update requires about 93.5GB of free space due to file reorganization, with the studio advising players to either continue on the current version or delete and redownload if storage is tight.
- PS5 changes restore Performance Mode to 60Hz with reduced input latency and higher resolution, lower the lighting quality to improve frame rate, retain a Performance Mode (Legacy) option, and improve loading speeds and texture clarity.
- PC additions include AMD FSR 4 support and an improved Compatible Mode that temporarily disables ray tracing and frame generation to prevent launch failures, plus fixes for DLSS 4 with ray tracing crashes and XeSS/NXSR rendering errors.
- Bug fixes address issues such as the Yaoguai Chief becoming undefeatable, and some players report that the revised Performance Mode produces brighter scenes with less nuanced shadow detail.
