If you have been enjoying putting in hours into Hogwarts Legacy, prepare to enjoy the game just a little better: another patch has just rolled out, once again aimed at performance improvements and bug fixes.
Among the notable fixes for PS5 are general performance improvements, as well as fixes aimed at stability in online connectivity. On the PC side, a fix was added for rebuilding of the Save Game list, if manually deleted, and the system for collecting crashes got some attention as well to help chase more rare cases.
For both PC and PS5, the Collector’s Edition trophy should now update correctly, and will now retroactively unlock and display all earned trophies. Both platforms got a number of performance and stability improvements, as well as a lot of little bug fixes reported by the community: so, make sure to report something on the official hogwartslegacy.bugs.wbgames.com website if you encounter it!
