New Jedi Survivor patch fixes a ton of bugs on all platforms

This is technically patch number 4

Jedi Survivor is still trucking along, and now we’re already on patch 4 in just a few scant weeks. Modern game development, ho!

The Jedi Survivor team also provided “future fixes” that are on their radar, which you can read below. Most of them deal directly with the PC edition of the game, reminding folks that there is still work to do. Once (and if) it’s done though, it’ll be a relief for PC players. Jedi Survivor was a great experience for me on consoles, but I can’t imagine how rough PC users must have it.

Jedi Survivor Patch 4 notes (full notes) – due on May 9 on consoles, “as soon as possible” on PC

• (PC only) Updated occlusion behavior for raytracing, reducing idle time stalls.

• (PC only) Updated streaming budgets that will help alleviate traversal hitching.

• (PC only) Performance improvements for some VFX.

• (PS5 only) Fixed an HDR value mismatch that would cause HDR setups to display incorrectly for PS5 users.
