WWE 2K16 patch 1.05 is available now for PlayStation 4 fans, no word yet on Xbox One. The patch fixes the Universe Mode issue gamers were having after downloading the Future Stars pack and much more.
UPDATE: (2-3) The patch should be available for Xbox One and Xbox 360 sometime today. Here are the patch notes.
Patch notes applicable to Universe Mode:
- Addressed an issue that occurred when the “WWE 2K16 Future Stars Pack” was installed where certain WWE Universe elements would reset (ongoing rivalries, calendar changes, edited shows, championship rankings) and changes wouldn’t save properly when exiting the mode or restarting the title. The level of impact varied by user, but users who replaced a default show slot with a Custom Show are more likely to have been impacted. Rivalries, calendar changes, custom shows, and championship rankings can now be manually readjusted.
- Users who installed the WWE 2K16 Future Stars Pack on Patch 4 and encountered issues with Universe elements resetting may not be able to recover all data from their pre-WWE 2K16 Future Stars Pack installation WWE Universe save state, particularly with regards to statistics and ongoing rivalry stories for shows impacted by the reset. Affected users should not have to reset their entire Universe save state to continue playing the mode, which will now save changes properly.
