Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds Patch 1.47 Available

The 1.45 patch for Guerrilla Games’ open-world action-RPG Horizon Zero Dawn was released on Monday, November 27th. It contained quite a few fixes and general improvements for The Frozen Wilds expansion, its quests and economy, but also some new technical issues. Fortunately, they were promptly addressed in the follow-up patch 1.46. Unfortunately, patch 1.46 had technical issues of its own, so the folks at Guerrilla had to release patch 1.47 just a few days after 1.46 went live.

The game should be stable now, and since the follow-up patches are mostly just one-fix ponies, here’s a snippet from the extensive 1.45 patch notes:

General Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where players were not able to create a New Game+ loadout after completing the game.
• Fixed an issue where the Insulated Outfit Weave would not be present at its set location.
• Fixed an issue where Skill Points would still be visible when the player had all skills unlocked.
• Fixed an issue at the Charger site near Song’s Edge, where there was a chance that Chargers would not spawn at the site when visiting the area.
• Fixed an issue at the Scorcher site, where there was a chance that only Scrappers would spawn at the site when visiting the area.
• Fixed an issue where fast traveling to the Longnotch icon would put Aloy on top of a tent.
• Fixed an issue where the camp fires in The Frozen Wilds would not stay lit after being activated and reloading.
