Pet project.
Update 1.1 for The Blood of Dawnwalker will add a new Story mode with additional combat assist, a potion that lets you forget your abilities and master new ones, and the ability to pet dogs and cats.
Expected to roll out next week, the patch also brings changes to combat targeting, the camera and traversal, a FrameGen update, uncensored blood and gore in the Japanese version on Steam, and more than 1,100 other improvements and fixes.
The patch notes were shared on Twitter/X, and they describe several of the changes that game director Konrad Tomaszkiewicz told to our Bertie last month.
The game difficulty formerly known as Story will be rebadged as the 'Forgiving' difficulty, and a different new Story mode, with additional combat assist, will be added.
The Draught of Mind Rebirth will make you forget all your Swordmastery, Witchcraft, and Vampirism abilities, so you can respec and put the time you spent learning them towards a different set.
The update will also, quite rightly, let you pet dogs and cats.
The team is also addressing some technical issues, including an update to the FrameGen technology and dedicated settings.

Changes and improvements:
And over 1,100 other improvements and fixes.
The patch is expected to roll out next week.
The Blood of Dawnwalker arrived in early September and scored four stars on Eurogamer. Bertie praised its novel time-limiting structure and freeform approach, as well as its enjoyable quests and characters, writing: "CD Projekt Red alumni create a familiar dark fantasy adventure, but one with bold and provocative ideas of its own, that's mostly, enormously successful".
