Das Spiel Alone in the Dark von Pieces Interactive wurde am 20. März für Xbox Series X/S, PS5 und PC veröffentlicht und stieß auf gemischte Reaktionen. Nichtsdestotrotz gibt es ein neues Update mit Fehlerbehebungen und Schrotflinten-Balancing für diejenigen, die den Sprung gewagt haben.
Das Level-Streaming wurde verbessert, während die Beleuchtung in „mehreren Bereichen“ optimiert wurde. Es wurden mehrere Abstürze behoben, von denen einige mit dem Speicher auf der Xbox zusammenhängen. Abstürze im Zusammenhang mit Autosaves auf dem Friedhof beim Laden von Speicherdateien aus früheren Versionen, beim Übergang zu Kapitel 3 oder sogar beim Öffnen der Tür des Konservatoriums wurden ebenfalls behoben.
Das ist eine ganze Menge, vor allem, wenn man die verschiedenen Verzögerungen bedenkt, die der Survival-Horror-Titel erlitten hat (und man sich fragt, wie viel schlimmer es ohne diese Verzögerungen gewesen wäre). Die vollständigen Update-Notizen findet ihr unten.
