Arkane Studios has just pushed out a new patch for Prey on PC, and it addresses a lot of the game’s glaring problems. The most notable fix is the one for the bug that corrupts players’ save files, rendering the game literally unplayable. In addition to that, the crafting material duplication exploit has also been patched out, so that means you’ll have to play the game fairly now, without cheating your way to survival. You can check out the full patch notes down below:
