Mortal Kombat fans on PC, rejoice! Your bug-laden copy of Mortal Kombat X is on the path to being an actual, playable game. Well, we’re almost there, anyways.

The latest patch, which finally saw NetherRealm Studios step in and assist port lead High Voltage Software, purported to correct a number of issues that have been plaguing the title since launch. And boy was it a doozy; this update weighed in at just under 16 GBs, most notably addressing a glut of crashes that rendered Mortal Kombat X nearly inoperable during its early days.

Unfortunately, there always seems to be a downside, and this patch’s positives brought with them a rather glaring negative.

According to numerous reports on Test Your Might and Steam, saves were being wiped left and right after the update, eventually forcing the developers the pull the patch to correct these brand new issues. It’s at this point I’d like to point out the absurdity of a patch that includes a “safety check to try to eliminate save data loss” resulting in even more data loss, but at least they moved relatively quickly to catch the problem.

For more details on what was included in this update, be sure to check out the official Steam post. We’ll be sure to keep you informed when it becomes available again.
