Ninja Theory’s critically acclaimed Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice has received its first patch, updating the game to version 1.01 with a number of different bug fixes and progression issues.

It also adjusts the automatic difficulty for enemy health scaling along with the damage that Senua takes and delivers. Damage value for certain combo finishers has been increased while Warrior enemies now have an increased chance of avoiding certain heavy attacks. Progression issues that could possibly pop up in the Fenrir Cave, thus halting one’s playthrough, have also been fixed.

If that wasn’t enough, Russian subtitles have also been added to the game. As for those having performance issues on AMD GPUs, Ninja Theory noted that a fix is in development and it will address issues as they crop up while continuing to take feedback.

Check out some of the patch notes below for more information. The full patch notes can be seen here.
