Sony and From Software revealed today that the PlayStation 4 exclusive, Bloodborne, has surpassed one million units sold. In addition to this milestone news, they also started to dish some of the first details on the 1.03 patch.
Yeah, there is no set release date for the mythical performance optimization patch but at least it's something. They also provided a few troubleshooting tips to help players access the game's online features.
As we confirmed previously, the 1.03 update seeks to reduce certain load times in addition to performance optimizations. The patch also resolves an issue that resulted in abnormal game behavior after many continuous hours of play. Additional fixes will be included as well.
The team is currently working towards a global release of the 1.03 patch before the end of the month. We will try to provide more specific timing as soon as we are able.
