Skyrim PS3 Patch Details Out in Europe
Posted on 30. Nov, 2011 by Freak_c in Games, News, Patches
If you haven’t been playing Skyrim then you may have not noticed that there was a patch released for the console version, mainly for the PS3 version. This is because there were some performance issues with the game but Bethesda have sorted this out. According to Bethesda forum members, the 92MB patch has sorted several of the issues, improving the frame rate and reducing the number of freezes. However, some users are still reporting that the patch doesn’t fix the problem and a system restart is still required every few hours.
The Xbox 360 patch, which is supposed to iron out some texture scaling issues and is also slated for release this week, is not yet available. Bethesda have released the official patch notes. The patch does indeed address the PS3 performance issues. The Xbox 360 patch is expected to arrive this week sometime.
