We can assume this patch is to resolve some bug fixes, specifically one that was brought up with the last update that prevented players from unlocking an item. Santa Monica Studios confirmed on X at the time that this issue was being investigated. That was a full month ago, so chances are high this update resolves that issue.
Congratulations on your clear!
