The latest patch for Destiny 2 is here, though it’s only a small hotfix. After the servers went down for maintenance for roughly an hour, patch 7.0.5.1 is now live, bringing a small handful of fixes to a game that has recently been beleaguered by technical issues.
The new patch has fixed two issues that were causing crashes, one that could be triggered by opening the loadout menu, and another that was caused by an excess of particle effects in certain parts of Neptune. The patch will no doubt be welcome to PS5 players who have been especially impacted by crashes occurring within Neomuna on Neptune. The patch has also tweaked the Daughters of Oryx fight to minimize flashing and adjust the scene’s brightness.
