4A Games has released a new minor update for Metro Exodus. According to the release notes, the June 19th patch fixes the freezing issues that players experienced when alt+tabbing, and resolves a bug that could prevent the game settings to be saved for some players.
It’s also worth mentioning that a few days ago, 4A Games released a patch that addresses some of the issues that plagued the game’s Microsoft Xbox Game Pass version.
That patch, which was released on June 13th, fixed the sign in procedure issue where consumers were unable to access the game due to different sign ins conflicting, as well as all cloud saving issues where consumers could not launch or run saves (players still need to ensure that they are signed in with an account that is able to access the cloud features so that the saves work as intended).
As always, this latest minor patch will be downloaded by the Epic Games Store the next time you launch its client, and you can find its complete changelog below.

It didn’t update on Steam so why does it matter
Played the free version, game is meh, but looks beautiful.
I’ve been playing this on the Xbox app, and I have to say it’s pretty good. The app is a huge improvement over the Windows store too.
They tempo on reacting to feedback and fixing things is slower that slug…
Already forgot the game was even out…
Nah. It’s better optimized but the scripting in the first two I guess might have been just as bad. But because all NPC interactions were linear then I guess we’ll never know if they’re better in that department specifically.
Overall I had to give up on the game less than ten hours in. First chapter is riddled with bugs and the only solution is to basically restart the entire game at this point where they’ll still have another chance of occuring.
They should have stuck to linear titles, because there is zero sense of a balanced open world. Enemies aren’t a threat because they’re spread so far apart and in-between, making enemies an annoyance, and combat is unrewarding as a result. And they balance that out by making resources incredibly sparse even on Normal Difficulty, basically requiring you to explore the entirety of the open maps before continuing in the Story to avoid missing out on essential upgrades to weapons and survival gear.
Worst yet though I feel is in the first open map called Volga. There’s water. As an obstacle. They remedy this by dotting boats around the map…Where shrimp and gigantic monster catfish will actively seek to attack you as you rowing across these rivers. There is no way to move the boat and attack. So you are forced take several hits from these monsters or die trying to transition between the 2-3 second animation of putting down or picking up the paddles to stop or start rowing the boat.
Basically. All in all, to cut a long story short. it’s probably one of the biggest disappointments of 2019 for me. If my opinion means anything to you that is. Which if doesn’t fair enough. But if you’re considering it, Game Pass is the best way to try it. But just check up as many reviews as you can before wasting time downloading it. Most will praise it, but I literally had to be drunk to even bother starting the game and trying to enjoy playing it.
