The 1.2 patch will provide fixes for several game-breaking bugs.

A patch for Wii U launch title ZombiU has gone live in North America, and is expected to soon be available worldwide, Ubisoft has confirmed.

The 1.2.0 software update, which requires just 18MB of storage space to download, fixes a number of bugs that prevented progress or caused the game to crash, as well as various other glitches.

According to patch notes issued by a Ubisoft representative, this update will address the following:

* On Mission 12, in the Nursery MAP, the interaction with the door in the basement of nursery was missing at rebirth if specific steps were followed.

* On Mission 13, in the Gas Station MAP, a Mission object that is mandatory to complete the objective was missing if specific steps were followed.

* On Mission 14, in the Circus MAP, if the player died right after recovering his Backpack, and rebooted the Wii U console, the objective was not updated.

* On Mission 15, in the Bunker MAP, the Panacea disappeared after the Player died while downloading it. However, the objective remained the same (download Panacea).

* On Mission 10, in the Tower MAP, the Objective "Secure landing site" was not validated if specific steps were followed.

* On Mission 15, in the Bunker MAP, if specific steps were followed, the Player might get stuck in the Bunker after he took Doctor's eye / Panacea because a Ladder disappeared.

* On Mission 16, in the MAP Safe House, the iron curtain in the Safe House lacked of collision during Mission 16. This Bug could lead to a scoring exploit on leaderboards.

* In the Safe House MAP, the Player saw a placeholder text when he dragged & dropped an item from the Blue Box to his holsters following certain steps.

* On Mission 12 or 15, in the Nursery MAP, the game crashed if the Player burned the Zombi Nurse while she died.

The patch notes also indicate that minor improvements have been made to the the game's animation transitions, while the framerate has been optimised.

Users will be able to download the 1.2.0 update for ZombiU by launching the game from the Wii U home menu, providing their system is connected to the internet.

That's nice to know. I didn't encounter any game breaking bugs in my playthrough; but I'm planning on a survival mode speedrun, and any of those would've been a pretty crappy thing to run into!

This is great news for me! I fell victim to the Mission 14 Circus Bug. I was killed right after I regained my backpack, and decided to stop playing for the day. The Next time I booted the game: No Objective, no goal, just stuck in Limbo.


Now I am going to start over and hopefully be able to finish this great gameĀ  ;)
