Final Fantasy 16 will get a day-one patch that fixes several minor issues, including crashes, text errors, progress blockers, and more. It will also feature performance enhancements. This comes by way of a livestream featuring the game's producer Naoki Yoshida (via Eurogamer).

"This is a rapid patch, so it's not necessary to actually play the game," Yoshida said during the livestream.
