Elden Ring Update 1.018.002

Elden Ring update 1.018.002 is out for version 1.17.2 across consoles and PC, and this fixes a few key issues, as well as plugs an exploit that was recently spotted by the community.

Note that this minor patch does not add any new content and is not available for the Switch 2 version.

Read on for the complete list of changes made today.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug where the character would not display correctly when wearing the Gold Tattoo Chest armor with the Hide Helmet option toggled on.

  • Corrected some text in the credits.
  • Fixed a bug where shooting Piquebone Arrows and Fletched Piquebone Arrows in a specific way would inflict status buildup.
  • PS4 / PS5 only fixes enhanced security for network features.
