Until Dawn gets its first bug-fix update

Sony has released an update to fix various bugs that interrupt the gameplay of Until Dawn. These bug fixes could be critical since Until Dawn is a highly replayable interactive-horror game where you try to save as many characters trapped at a mountain lodge before dawn.

Gamers have complained about some problems from the bugs. I’ve run into a couple of bugs myself in my three playthroughs. In one of them, a character fires a gun, but the gun doesn’t actually go off. There are bad consequences for that. In another scene, one character picked up a totem, and the game crashed as the video started. After I installed the 46MB update, that problem went away for me.

Here’s our review of Until Dawn, and here are our tips for surviving it.
