In addition, as previously announced, this performance optimization involves changes to the underlying game that take up a lot of space, and if MOD is installed, the game may not be started due to version compatibility issues.

Here is the full update announcement:

Reminder before updating

Due to the platform update mechanism, your computer needs to reserve a certain amount of free disk space in advance (if you are a STEAM user, the reserved space does not need to be on the same disk) for temporary storage of update files [PC]

If you have installed a MOD in the game, after updating the patch, due to the version compatibility issue of the MOD, you may be unable to start the game, the save file may be damaged, or an error pop-up window may be triggered during the game.If a similar situation occurs, we recommend that you uninstall the installed MOD first, recheck the integrity of the game installation file, and then restart the game [PC]

Since this performance optimization involves many underlying changes, the update patch takes up a lot of space.If you encounter insufficient storage space or other reasons that prevent you from completing the update, you can try playing again [PS5]

If you encounter an abnormal update size during the patch installation process, or freeze/crashes/cannot enter the game after the update, please refer to the game installation and patch update FAQ on the official website

This update may require recompiling shaders. If you encounter crash problems during shader compilation, please try to restart the game until compilation is completed or skip shader compilation. For details, please refer to the Game Screen Performance FAQ [PC]
