Elden Ring developer FromSoftware has released its first patch for the game following the release of Shadow of the Erdtree, bringing it up to Update 1.12.2.<\/p>\n

<\/section>\n

A blog post<\/a> from Bandai Namco outlined the changes, which mainly involve a handful of balancing updates. Shadow Realm Blessings have been revised, affecting their attack and damage negation curve scaling.<\/p>\n

The patch also addresses a PC bug where raytracing settings are automatically enabled if players have previously loaded save data from previous game versions. This can be addressed by visiting System, then Graphics Settings, then Raytracing Quality, and setting Raytracing to Off.<\/p>\n

FromSoftware made no mention of the bug affecting Steam Deck users that makes the game unplayable<\/a> if left idle for more than five minutes, potentially leading to corrupted data.<\/p>\n

It did, unsurprisingly, note that more updates are on the way, however. “Other balance adjustments as well as bug fixes are also planned for a future patch,” FromSoftware said. The full patch notes are available below.<\/p>\n

Shadow of the Erdtree, which arrived June 21, 2024, features bosses with which FromSoftware “really pushed the envelope” on what the player can withstand<\/a>, director Hidetaka Miyazaki said ahead of its release. In fact, getting into the expansion even poses a challenge as players must defeat an optional boss<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In our 10\/10 review<\/a>, IGN said: “Like the base game did before it, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree raises the bar for single player expansions,” we said. “It takes everything that made the base game such a landmark RPG, condenses it into a relatively compact 20-25 hour campaign, and provides fantastic new challenges for heavily invested fans to chew on.”<\/p>\n
