Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have released a new patch for Elden Ring.
Patch 1.03 offers new questlines, a new NPC, and map tracking for characters you’ve met. Additionally, the patch includes a nerf for the Mimic Tear Spirit Ashes (?) and added bug fixes.
You’ll be able to add an icon and the name of an NPC that you meet on the map. The new NPC is named Jar-Bairn, who you can learn more about here.
FromSoftware also says that it has added some summonable NPCs in multiple situations — hopefully that means you’ll be able to summon an NPC before fighting Malenia, Blade of Miquella because that was one tough battle.
Elden Ring has also fixed a bug with stat scaling on some arcane weapons, and added questlines for Diallos, Nepheli Loux, Kenneth Haight and Gatekeeper Gostoc.
Here are the full patch notes below:
