Dragon Age II PC v1.01 Beta Patch Released

With a pretty quick turnaround, BioWare has released the beta version of a v1.01 patch that fixes several issues with Dragon Age II. However, it is available for the retail PC edition only, so Mac, Xbox 360, PS3, and Steam users will have to wait awhile yet. A final non-beta version for those outlets will be available, likely after the weekend.

What platforms is this for?
‘¢ PC only. This patch does not address issues impacting Mac, Xbox360 or PS3.

What does BETA mean?
BETA means:
Users apply this patch at their own risk. In general, we recommend you only download and apply it if you are affected by the specific issues listed in the patch notes.
