Prey Update 1.05 Released

The 1.05 update for Arkane Studios’ immersive sim Prey is now live on Steam. This latest patch fixes a variety of bugs and makes the game less crash-prone overall, which is undoubtedly a good thing, however since it went live, a number of users have been reporting that it also broke the controller support for them. If that’s your preferred control scheme – I would suggest waiting for a hotfix of some kind. Otherwise, here are the complete patch notes:

Patch Notes for Version 1.05:

  • Player can no longer become blocked from rebooting Power Plant for the “Reboot” mission after killing the Technopath in Life Support.
  • Fixed crash when mimicking bass guitar in the Yellow Tulip.
  • Extra items gained through passive neuromods, such as organs and tumors from Necropsy or spare parts through Dismantle, will now properly stack in the player’s inventory automatically.
  • Loading a save from a previous version of the game will no longer remove all quests and inventory, or break the HUD.
  • Fix for some AI-related crashes.
