The Outer Worlds on PS5 Might Work Now, More Patches Planned | Push Square
Post-launch work on The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition has hit a new milestone as Private Division announces version 1.2 is available to download now on PS5. The updated port released with a very long list of technical problems, which forced some buyers into demanding a refund. This is now the second update to go live since launch, with more planned for the future.
Patch 1.2 introduces «framerate improvements on all platforms», «reduces hitching», and optimises the graphics settings on PS5. In addition, combat encounters should see fewer frame rate dips, flickering issues should be less of a thing, and the lighting and overall visual quality have all received a boost. Private Division says its «team is still hard at work gathering feedback and implementing further improvements», so expect further updates to arrive in the coming weeks and months to get The Outer Worlds on PS5 up to scratch.
