A hotfix was released on March 29, and a second one followed on March 30. The newest hotfix mainly contains fixes to help improve performance and memory issues.

Additionally, the new update includes new back-end diagnostics features for Naughty Dog to mitigate any further issues to come. The full patch notes can be seen below.
