Throne and Liberty’s First Post-Launch Patch Includes Bug Fixes for the UI, Settings, and Performance Improvements
Throne and Liberty developer NCSoft has released the Amazon Games-published MMO’s first post-launch patch, 1.1.0. It includes bug fixes for the user interface and settings, and performance improvements.
It’s worth noting that on PS5 specifically, patch 1.1.0 makes optimizations to reduce screen tearing issues, and on Xbox Series X and S, it increases the resolution of the world map.
Throne and Liberty got off to a huge start on Steam this week, with a peak concurrent player count of 326,377 putting it behind only Valve’s own Dota 2 and Counter-Strike 2, and the evergreen Banana. While Throne and Liberty also launched on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S, Sony and Microsoft do not make player numbers public.
Its early performance is all the more impressive in light of mixed reviews, most of which have focused on its server issues and microtransactions. Originally billed as a Lineage sequel, Throne and Liberty is described as a free-to-play MMO with PvE and PvP set in a dynamic and seamless world. It suffered numerous delays over the course of a development cycle spanning several years.
IGN’s impressions of Throne and Liberty during its beta said the game “is fun but doesn’t do enough to stand out.”
