The first major update for Deathloop is out now on PlayStation 5 and PC, and it brings a host of improvements, including changes to weapon behavior, fixes to game-crashing issues, and some platform-specific features. Clashes between Colt and Juliana should run more smoothly now.

In regards to Deathloop’s weapons, there were instances of laser mines, turrets, and fireworks behaving differently for the two playable characters. Sometimes using the Havoc Slab as Juliana could cause the game to crash too. Both of these issues have been fixed. The PS5 version now includes an HDR calibration option, and the DualSense controller has improved vibration. Controller audio is now supported by the PC version, which can start utilizing Nvidia DLSS as well.

This isn’t a small update — Bethesda says the patch weighs in at 5 GB on PS5 and 11 GB on PC. Be aware of the file size before you download it. You can view the full patch notes below, straight from the official update page.
