Elden Ring Patch Fixes Bug That Allows for Save File Corruption

The developers of Elden Ring have released a minor but important update. The patch fixes a bug that hackers used to corrupt save files of other users.

Elden Ring received another minor update with fixes that takes care of a very important glitch. Patch 1.03.2 fixes a bug that could lead to corruption of save files.

We wrote about about the vulnerability a few days ago. The bug allowed fpr - as we read in the announcement on Steam - "teleporting other players to incorrect map coordinates". In practice, this caused the user invaded by hackers to experience a forced shutdown of the game, and after restarting his or her character would die and be reborn in the void indefinitely.

Apart from that, the patch fixed bugs related to Nephela Loux's thread, the deadly drop in the Shrine of the Beast, and the non-functioning Ashes of War. It was also assured that more updates are being worked on.
