Arkane has just released the June 12th Update for Redfall which is 32GB in size. Yeap, this new patch is quite big. Arkane has revealed its changelog/patch notes, so you can find bellow all of its tweaks, improvements, and changes.

Redfall released in an unacceptable state in May 2023. Although the game can run with over 60fps on a wide range of PC configurations, it looks awful. Redfall was easily one of the worst-looking PC games we’ve tested in 2023. Not only that, but the game suffered from numerous graphical glitches and gameplay issues.

As always, Steam will automatically download this update the next time you launch its client.

Stay tuned for more!
