While the fixes and improvements are indeed quite significant, the main focus of most users was probably the stability and installations issue mentioned earlier, as many have been unable to play the game entirely.

Thankfully enough, Microsoft announced that the patch will be available within 7 days of the patch note’s posting, so worst-case scenario users will only going to get it by the 3rd of September.

Applying the patch will be no big deal, as a simple relaunch of the game will trigger the automatic update system.

Also, remember that this game can also be downloaded via Steam and not just the Microsoft Store, so choose your preferred platform.

However, those of you that cannot wait can always opt to test out the Alpha builds that are released a day before the live patches, so make sure to check that out as well.

If you don’t know how to get the latest Alpha builds, simply follow these steps and you’ll be there.
