14 DAY TRIAL // Battlefield 4 has finally received today, January 14, two new updates on the PS4 and PS3, fixing a wide array of different problems and issues specific to those two platforms.
Battlefield 4 has been plagued by plenty of gameplay problems since its release in October of last year and, despite constant updates and patches from developer DICE, things are still problematic for the first-person shooter.
Now, after releasing yesterday a new patch on the PC, DICE has rolled out two fresh updates for the PS4 and PS3 editions of the game.
As you can see below, there are different issues tackled on the two platforms, so check out the changelogs below, via Battlelog.
