Elden Ring’s 1.05 Patch is Now Live; Includes a Ton of Bug Fixes

Earlier today, developer FromSoftware and publisher Bandai Namco deployed the sixth official patch for their hugely popular action-RPG, Elden Ring.

Dubbed Update 1.05, the patch largely takes aim at a plethora of bugs that have reared their ugly head for many adventurers who’re busy exploring the Lands Between. Outside of said bug fixes are some minor quality-of-life improvements. For instance, Bell Bearings’ liberated status will carry over into New Game+, so you won’t have to spend your time re-acquiring them.

Elsewhere, it appears that players on Xbox Series X will get a nice bonus, as the game’s loading times have received a handy boost following today’s update.

For the full Elden Ring 1.05 patch notes, check out the full rundown below:
