Crytek has released the first post-launch patches for Crysis 2 Remastered and Crysis 3 Remastered. According to the team, the update for C2R fixes a potential GPU memory leak. My guess is that this memory leak is the one we mentioned in our PC Performance Analysis article. On the other hand, the patch for C3R resolves a performance bug on AMD GPUs.
Going into more details, the GPU memory leak could occur when using Ray Tracing. This introduced performance issues after playing for extended periods of time. Additionally, the patch for Crysis 2 Remastered packs a number of Ray Tracing improvements.
The first patch for Crysis 3 Remastered fixes a DLSS issue in multi-sampled vegetation alpha test to improve grass movement. It also adds additional 60 FPS animations for the last two missing weapons.
As always, Epic Games Store will download these updates the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find their complete changelogs.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
