Prey is set to launch on May 5th for PS4, Xbox One, and PC accompanied by a day one patch, which you can download if somehow you've gotten an early copy of the game.

The update isn't anything too glamorous, but it does address many of the issues raised when the game's demo went live last week. The fixes include mostly a healthy slab of remedies to bugs, which included frame rate issues, crashes, and gameplay glitches.

If you played the demo, you will have also noticed that the game's audio was overbearingly loud when dealing with enemies, and would sometimes linger beyond enemy encounters. According to creative director Raphael Colantonio, this has been fixed in the game's final build:

Below, you can check out the patch notes for the update -- which comes in at 1.3 GB (via Gadgets360):
