Vampyr's first major update has arrived on PC, with Dontnod teasing bigger patches to come.

Vampyr was a darkly wonderful game all things considered, but it can be rough around the edges in terms of combat. Thankfully, Dontnod Entertainment seems to be addressing those concerns, most notably with its latest PC patch.

Along with the usual bugfixes you'd expect, Vampyr now allows PC players to switch between enemies using the mouse wheel. Considering how many targets can swarm you in any given combat, this is an especially handy feature.

Even better, Dontnod has promised that even bigger Vampyr updates can be expected in the near future. The studio also included steps for players who encounter a Low Level Fatal Crash Error, which is accounted for below.

The full patch changelog is as follows:

New Features:

Walk can now be used as a held input or a toggled input.
The Recovering Icon is now properly displayed when a citizen is healing
