Insomniac Games has not released any official changelog for the game just yet, and we suspect that’ll happen later on in the day. However, just as a reminder, here are the two patch notes for the game:

Version 1.001.004 Release Notes

General Fixes & Polish

  • Improved general game stability

Version 1.001.003 Release Notes

General Fixes & Polish

  • Improved general game stability
  • Prevented players from getting stuck if a weapon video does not play
  • Addressed an issue where the player could become stuck during the Phantom chase
  • Addressed an issue where Rivet could spawn without the hammer
  • Addressed an issue where Rivet could become stuck after collecting Zurpstones in Challenge Mode
  • Various additional fixes
  • Disabled automatic 120 Hz display output in Performance modes
    • Prior to this update, if “Enable 120 Hz Output” was set in the system settings, using the Performance RT or Performance mode would auto-detect a 120 Hz-capable display and use a 120 Hz output mode. While this did not change the game’s frame rate, it did reduce input latency by ~8 ms. However, entering this mode introduced visual compatibility issues with some displays that we didn’t feel comfortable imposing automatically on players. We’re exploring ways to re-introduce this input latency reduction feature  in a future update.

Once the studio releases the full details, we’ll update the post. We’re also keeping a close eye on the community to see if anything is shared.

Update: Post has been updated to reflect the official patch notes.
