Plus Russian Subtitles and Automatic Difficulty Adjustments
The first patch has arrived for the critically-acclaimed Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice. Contained in patch 1.01 is a healthy mix of difficulty adjustments, subtitles, audio issues and fixes for some game-breaking bugs.
In particular, several of these progression-halting issues pop up in Fenrir Cave. Other fixes include the addition of audio cues, corrections for lip-sync problems, Russian subtitles and lighting problems. Major combat tweaks are also in the mix, such as an adjustment to the automatic health and damage scaling in enemies.
