About The Golden Joystick Awards:

In this patch: * Added persistence to clips connected to the Another Reality achievement and prevented duplicates appearing. * Added further failsafe for endgame credits sequence to catch rare reported lock up. * Fix to prevent Cinematographer triggering early in some situations.

This patch has these fixes:

• For players who have seen the endgame but had the game freeze before the credits, this will unlock the achievement for finishing the game. If you have previously passed the conditions for this achievement, it will unlock on loading into the menu. NB: We have been unable to reproduce this issue on Steam, but are including it here as a failsafe.
• A fix for the issue where players were not triggering the Another Reality achievement. If you have previously passed the conditions for this, the achievement will unlock on entering the grid.
• A fix for the issue where players who force quit the game, or in some cases use a cloud save, when loading the game fail to regenerate thumbnails (the game will tell you it is reloading save data. This should now be fixed.
• A fix for the issue where players who enter and exit Image Mode without teleporting during the tutorial will lose subtitles until they return to the grid.

The first review for IMMORTALITY has landed, and it's a special one. EDGE MAGAZINE is legendary in the games world for the quality of its analysis and for how rarely it awards a coveted perfect score of 10/10. The last game to score the perfect 10 was Elden Ring and that was one of only 23 games in the magazine's entire history to get the accolade. Well, now there are 24 games on the list -- because IMMORTALITY was awarded 10/10 in the latest issue! In the review, Edge concluded: [quote]"For all the delicious brain food it serves up, this astonishing game - a new high bar for creator and genre - never stops reminding you of the human beings at the heart of the moviemaking process, and the very real cost of their art."[/quote] If you want to read the full review, go grab a copy of Edge Issue 375 and dig in!
