Update 1.4.1 isn’t that impressive for the number of changes it made, but that’s not surprising given the fact that it’s actually just a patch. Certainly, however, some Returnal players struggling with certain problems will be satisfied.
The complete list of changes introduced in Update 1.4.1 is as follows:
- Platinum: The Atropian Survival, Welcome Home, and Sins of the Mother trophies can now be unlocked by replaying the Act 3 ending.
- Daily Challenge: Fixed a rare issue where players were unable to complete the Daily Challenge in Fractured Wastes.
- Daily Challenge: Fixed an occasional issue where the loot was not appearing correctly in the Daily Challenge.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the save game to be corrupted in rare cases
- Fixed an occasional visual issue when scanning new items.
The game is a production of the science fiction studio Housemarque (Dead Nation, Matterfall), which was recently acquired by Sony – for more details, see here . It is unclear how long Returnal will be supported given this change. It seems, however, that there are at least a few more updates waiting for us in the future, because the title is full of other bugs.
The production is available only on PlayStation 5 and fully exploits the potential of next-generation consoles: it offers 4K resolution, 60 frames per second, as well as adaptive triggers and haptic vibrations of the DualSense controller.
Returnal debuted on April 30 this year and has been updated several times since then.
