Classic PS1 JRPG The Legend of Dragoon just received a quiet patch on PS5 that allegedly fixes most of the issues in the version Sony released for modern platforms in 2023.

MP1st checked, as no formal patch notes accompanied this latest update on PS5 and PS4, and the outlet reports that the most prominent offenders appear to have been addressed. You might be good to go if you've been holding off on a reunion with Dart and friends.
