Videogame Zone!
Tra le nuove migliorie si può notare la nuova impostazione "Zip Mode" che velocizza le animazioni e alcuni dettagli del gameplay per velocizzare le partite, da questa patch in poi XCOM 2 sarà in grado di determinare in automatico le impostazioni grafiche ottimali in base alla propria configurazione e alla risoluzione impostata.
È stata inoltre introdotta una nuova configurazione raccomandata per lo Steam Controller per supportare nuove azioni, aggiunto anche il supporto alle configurazioni multischeda (SLI di Nvidia e CrossFire di AMD).
Di seguito il completo elenco dei cambiamenti:
Codice: Seleziona tutto
