The announcement also came with some patch notes. According to the list, the patch addresses problems with memory, audio threading, matchmaking, Jason's morph cursor, different glitches, infinite stamina, perk roller UI, visibility, placement, the hiding spot exit code, host specific crashes and the DLC, among other things.

Before the patch was released, fans became worried that Illfonic was not paying enough attention to "Friday the 13th: The Game" as much as they should. Some argued that the studio was focusing more time on "Dead Alliance" than fixing issues within the game. However, Illfonic boss Charles Brungardt insisted that this was not the case at all.

"I wanted to address the concerns that IllFonic has abandoned Friday the 13th: The Game for Dead Alliance," Brungardt told Eurogamer in a statement. "This is 100 per cent not true. Most major and independent studios have multiple teams working on multiple projects at the same time."

Brungardt went on to explain that they began developing "Dead Alliance" prior to "Friday the 13th: The Game." Additionally, Illfonic added more people to the team assigned to work on the title. The studio also launched a second office in order to focus on improving the game. It is clear that Illfonic is determined to give fans what they want, and the Xbox One patch is only the beginning.
