Focus Entertainment has released the first details forWarhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2’s first post-launch update.

After spending a few days in early access,Space Marine 2is officially out now onPlayStation 5,Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, andPC, but players can already expect a new patch to be released sometime this week.

That’s according to a newSteam postfollowing the game’s launch, where Focus Entertainment shared a teaser for the upcoming patch, which will include multiple fixes for crashing issues during the start of the game and during the first cutscene, which have remained persistent since early access.

Saber Interactive’s shooter will also see some optimizations to performance, improvements to servers following some reports of disconnections, and a bug that has prevented some players from joining entirely.

“I have about 6 hours in the game, I’ve only played the tutorial and have managed to get into about 4-5 Eternal War matches and 1 Operation,” one usersaid.

“Whether I’m trying to play with my friends or play solo most of the time I get stuck on Joining Server and it won’t load me into the game. So much for 4 day early access, can’t even take advantage of it and play multiplayer.”

The same bug has also caused some players to lose out on rewards after being disconnected from the server after completing missions, but the issue should be resolved with the upcoming patch. You can take a look at the minor list of fixes below.
