Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Patch Released, Fixes Multiple Bugs

After its release on October 26, Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy just received a new update that addresses a variety of bugs found in the game. Currently, the 1.04 patch is only available on PlayStation consoles, but will be released in the coming days for both Xbox and PC.

The patch (via a Reddit thread on the game’s official subreddit) is patch 1.04 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles, and will be 1.5 and 2.5 for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S consoles, respectively. The update looks to be mainly centered around polish and various bugs that have been found in the game. Things like Star-Lord’s movement, enemies becoming stuck in the wall, and other bugs specific to certain chapters in the game have been fixed, according to these notes.

This update does not fix everything, as players are still reporting broken trophies and scanning bugs. Collectibles also still wipe when players use chapter select. The update doesn’t salvage the saves of those who came across the New Game Plus bug that this patch addresses. And while the game isn’t scheduled to get any DLC, it is supposed to get more updates in the future as the PS5 and Xbox Series X consoles currently don’t support ray tracing like the PC version, meaning that it’s possible for the game to see more big bug fixes in the future.

The patch is out now for PlayStation consoles and will be out next week for Xbox players. PC players should also expect to see the patch go live for their version of the game sometime in the next couple of days. You can check out the patch notes below:
