Quick answer

The official launch thread currently acknowledges various crashes, missing Flayed Harbinger rewards, persistent ambient audio, controller input problems, unreliable Permanent Pickup items and several named boss bugs. The list is not exhaustive and may lag behind hotfixes.

Live verification board

Checked 2026-08-24. Status labels separate confirmed rollout from workarounds and unresolved reports.

Crashes / loadingTracked

Update first; use Recover Save only when the load screen offers it.

Controller RT / D-padTracked

Intermittent input failures remain in the official launch issue list.

Permanent Pickup itemsTracked

Active-slot items may fail; returning to the main menu is a workaround, not a fix.

Final boss / Grisha RemnantWorkaround

The official community manager advises unequipping Grisha Remnant while a fix is investigated.

Do this first

  1. Update and reproduce once on the newest build.
  2. Compare the symptom with the official list below.
  3. Use only a matching workaround, not every workaround at once.
  4. Report platform, build, location and reproducibility in the official bug channel.

Acknowledged launch issues

The official community thread names these issues as examples the team is tracking.

  • Various crashes
  • Flayed Harbinger reward missing or disappearing
  • Ambient wind or waterfall audio persisting

02

Workaround status matters

A workaround is not the same as a fix. Restarting to the main menu may restore an Active item, and Recover Save may help a loading crash, but neither proves the underlying bug is resolved. Recheck the patch tracker after every update.

03

Report without losing useful detail

The official template asks for bug type, exact location, build version, reproducibility, platform and PC specifications where relevant. Add screenshots or video only when they show the state clearly.
