Santa Monica Studio and Jetpack Interactive did something rare: they launched a patch that adds performance rather than removing features.

A: Yes. Any fresh installation of God of War (digital or disc with internet) will automatically download 1.01 → 8008283 as the base patch. However, subsequent patches will overlay it. To retain only this patch, you must disconnect from the internet after installing v101.

Patch 1.01 (Build 8008283) was the official Day 1 update for the PC release of God of War (2018). This patch primarily focused on resolving critical stability issues, memory allocation bugs, and specific rendering errors that were present in the pre-launch build (Build 8006282). No new gameplay content or balance changes were introduced.
