• Fixed a crash that would occur in various locations in Vanaheim
  
• Improved performance of AMD Zen1 and Zen2 processors in areas where the game was CPU limited

• Note that the performance issue related to tessellation is resolved in NVIDIA drivers 565.90 or higher
  
• Fixed an issue where lock on would rapidly bounce between targets when using mouse. It will now be more "sticky" requiring more effort to change targets

[h2]Updates[/h2]

• Prevent crash on game boot due to corrupt or missing files - game will now tell you that there are bad files and ask you to verify installation
  
• Volumetric fog in Realm Between Realms and during dream sequences will now appear properly on NVIDIA 10xx, 20xx, and 30xx cards
  
• DualSense controllers will now default to rumble backup when connected wirelessly as haptics are only available with wired connections
  
• Achievements will now retroactively unlock when loading save games
  
  Please note: If you reload your save and your missing Achievements do not pop, this is likely due to something causing the Steam API to fail via a temporary block such as a firewall, internet disabled, etc. Please double-check possible blockers if this issue persists after reloading.
