When Respawn Entertainment announced Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s last-gen release date a little over a month ago, the developer confirmed that it would also be releasing a patch for the action-adventure title’s PC version in order to “bring enhancements to the game’s technical performance, controls and more, plus a variety of quality-of-life improvements.” That patch is now out.

As per the patch notes released by Respawn and EA for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s Patch 9 on PC, it brings improvements in frame rate (including fixing instances of frame rate stuttering, something that many players have reported with the game), while also making several quality-of-life, like improving mouse and keyboard functionality where the UI and menu screens are concerned.

Other tweaks include ray tracing optimization for high-end GPUs, fixes for a handful of bugs and crashes, the removal of Denuvo DRM, and more. Check out the full patch notes below.
