What happened
The official Steam announcement published a cross-platform patch for PC and PlayStation 5 on August 28.
The update adds content, fixes platform-specific crashes and changes online matchmaking controls.
The practical change: Finish any replay review before updating, then run the PC shader warm-up and set the matchmaking area deliberately.
What is confirmed
- Wolverine's Battle Reborn suit is available in eight colours for both combat and the lobby avatar.
- The PC build addresses a crash linked to Windows Update KB5121003 and reduces excessive Steam platform update calls.
- A PS5 language-selection loop and several transition-to-battle crashes are listed as fixed.
- Ranked and Casual matchmaking now expose a Play Area setting.
- Replays created before the update can no longer be searched or played after updating.
What this means for players
Players with long matchmaking waits can test the current region instead of leaving Play Area set broadly.
PC players are explicitly told to complete shader warm-up for a smoother experience.
What is still unconfirmed
The post lists one matchmaking help-text issue as known and does not claim that every performance or connection problem is fixed.
What to do next
- 01Record or review important old replays before updating.
- 02Complete shader warm-up on PC after the patch.
- 03Match Play Area to your current region if search times are poor.
