FromSoftware has released the newest Elden Ring patch for the PC and PS5 versions as it fixes platform specific problems.
The new patch, version 1.02.1 has been released for PC and PS5. While version 1.02 has fixed most of the problems that other platforms had, these two still had issues that did not go away. With this new hotfix, it has made gameplay a lot better and almost lesser crashes.
For PC, it is not just about fixing the crashes. It has now improved handling with the mouse, load times, and more. On PS5, it fixed a rather troublesome issue that the console had.
