De Until Dawn remake heeft een nieuwe patch gekregen die de game optimaliseert voor de PlayStation 5 Pro, maar ook de editie voor de gewone PlayStation 5 krijgt nog een leuk extraatje. Vanaf nu kunnen spelers op de standaard PS5 namelijk ook kiezen tussen een Performance en een Fidelity modus, waarmee spelers de prestaties meer op eigen wens kunnen afstemmen.

Deze aanpassingen zijn meer dan welkom. In onze review roemden we de verbluffende graphics van de remake, maar merkten we op dat de besturing niet altijd soepel was. De oorspronkelijke 30fps blijven een punt van kritiek, dus hopelijk brengen deze nieuwe modi daar verbetering in.

Hieronder de patch notes:
