The first multiplayer patch and a title update for Crysis 3 has just gone live on the PC and is coming soon to consoles. Though the game's only been out for about a week, Crytek has been hard at work addressing issues that've cropped up for players since its release.
Players who picked it up for the PC can download the updates upon logging in to Origin, while those on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 will have to wait awhile longer to receive the multiplayer patch as it goes through the motions of being certified by Sony and Microsoft on their respective consoles. The title update is available for all platforms.
Here's what the patches contain:
