With Nightdive Studios having recently released The Thing: Remastered back in December, the studio has now released a new update for the title. Numbered at patch 1.1, the update brings with it a host of bug fixes for various aspects of the game, including crashes, gameplay bugs, and display-based bugs.
Among the fixes to the game are one for the Steam Deck, where the frame rate used to be locked to half of the system’s screen refresh rate when the title was played with the Vulkan renderer outside of the Steam client. Other fixes include one for weapon firing rates not being respected, the direction Blake faces in the ending cutscene for the weather station level, and the addition of a “Most Recent” button in the load game menu.
The Thing: Remastered is, as you might have presumed from the title, a remastered release of the classic 2002 shooter The Thing. Much like the classic movie it is based on, The Thing: Remastered features plenty of body horror, along with Fear/Trust mechanics to keep players on edge, as well as squad-based shooter gameplay.
