Issues unresolved
When playing in ultrawide, the main menu can display white bars on the side.
- This is a known issue, and the developers are working on a fix.[6]
Lost the Batiste key
It is possible for the Batiste key to be prematurely removed from the inventory, typically by attempting to use the key on the same door twice, resulting in the player being unable to progress in Chapter 2.[7][8]
Reload a save prior to the key being lost[9] |
