Heavy Rain patch is complete

Currently in the final stages of testing.

Sony Computer Entertainment has posted an update on the progress of a Heavy Rain patch designed to solve widely reported cases of game freezing and other errors.

"The latest news is that the game patch has now completed development and is currently in the final stages of testing. While a fixed release date is not currently available we are expecting the update to be released very soon," wrote Sony on the PlayStation forums

"As mentioned previously, this patch is not targeted purely at the issues reported in this thread but does address a range of minor issues which could be contributing factors," explained the update. "Given the small percentage of players affected by these issues and the difficulty that has been had in reproducing them here we're optimistic that this patch resolves your problems but cannot guarantee that this will be the case."

It doesn't sound overly promising, but hopefully the patch will do the trick.

Heavy Rain is out now, only on PS3.
