Update Time: October 16, 2025 16:00 (UTC+8)

What to Know Before Patch Installation

• The patch size is approximately 5.7 GB. However, due to the platform's update mechanism, your computer will need to reserve a certain amount of free disk space (not necessarily on the same disk) for temporary storage of the update files.
• If you have installed any mods in the game, installing the patch may cause compatibility issues. This could prevent you from launching the game, loading your saved games, or triggering error pop-ups during gameplay. We recommend uninstalling the installed mods and verifying the integrity of the game files before restarting the game.
• If you encounter unusually large update sizes during patch installation, or if the game gets stuck, crashes, or fails to start after installation, please refer to the Installation/Patch FAQ on our official website.
• This update may require shader recompilation. If you experience crashes during shader compilation, please try restarting the game until the compilation is complete or skip shader compilation. For more details, please refer to the Game Graphics FAQ.
