Firewatch patch 'significantly improves' experience on playstation 4

Campo Santo has released patch 1.02 for Firewatch on PS4, which it says "significantly improves the experience across many aspects of the game."

The developer listed the most important parts of the update on its blog.

"Draw distance and shadow render distance have been improved, which should remove significant texture popping," and "many instances of unstable framerate have been improved."

Auto-saves will now occur less frequently, as they were causing some of the worst instances of framerate hitching.

Campo Santo also mentions that it is still working with Unity in order to improve the game by upgrading to an upcoming version of Unity's engine. Subtitle support for other languages is also planned to be added to the PS4 verison.
