Samson to Receive Major Patch Addressing "Unacceptable" Launch Bugs

Liquid Swords, the studio behind the recently launched gritty minor crim simulator Samson, is gearing up to release a substantial patch aimed at addressing the game’s "unacceptable" launch issues. Christofer Sundberg, the studio’s creative director and a veteran lead from the Just Cause series, confirmed the upcoming update is expected before the end of the week.

Players and critics alike, including our own verdict, noted a wide array of bugs present at Samson’s debut. These ranged from minor graphical oddities and janky animations to more severe, game-breaking glitches that significantly hampered the player experience. A key improvement highlighted for this imminent patch is the much-requested addition of multiple save slots, a feature conspicuously absent at launch that proved a significant point of contention for many.

The swift response from Liquid Swords underscores their commitment to refining Samson’s player experience. This initial major update, arriving so quickly after release, will be crucial in stabilizing the game and hopefully allowing its core premise to shine through once the technical hitches are ironed out. Players will be keen to see how these fundamental fixes impact their progression through the criminal underworld.
