Alongside the two new multiplayer maps for Gears of War 4, The Coalition will release the first title update for its third-person shooter. Unfortunately, though, it appears that this update will not enable the highly anticipated mGPU support.

According to the release notes, this update will enable users to rebind Spectator Mode controls on Windows 10, will add true offline LAN lobbies, and will fix some abnormalities to the UI on high resolution displays.

In addition, this patch will add an average FPS to the benchmark screen, will add in game language selection, and will give mouse and keyboard users the ability to switch weapons during countdown at the beginning of a round.

This patch also comes with various weapon tuning changes, as well as other fixes and improvements.

You can read its complete changelog below.
