Νέα patch για τα Gears of War 4 και Forza Horizon 3

Το Gears of War 4 που κυκλοφόρησε πρόσφατα, έλαβε μια μικρή ενημέρωση, μεγέθους 216 MB για να διορθώσει τα μικρά κολλήματα που αντιμετώπιζαν μερικοί παίκτες στο Xbox One στην αρχή ενός multiplayer match. Η PC έκδοση δεν ενημερώθηκε μιας και δεν παρουσίαζε κάποιο αντίστοιχο πρόβλημα.

Παράλληλα και το Forza Horizon 3 έλαβε και αυτό την δεύτερη κατά σειρά ενημέρωσή του, η οποία μεταξύ άλλων βελτιώνει την απόδοση της Windows 10 έκδοσης του παιχνιδιού. Αναλυτικά η αλλαγές του update ακολουθούν παρακάτω.
