R8 Fanes has released a brand new update today for its futuristic Wipeout-style anti-graft racing game, Pacer. The latest update is version 1.03 and it has a fairly small footprint with a 404MB download on PS4.
Racer is a fantastic racer (review here or watch above) but it’s not without its faults. Strangely enough, none of the fixes down below covered my only technical issue with the game. The fixes will be welcomed by Pacer players who have gotten frustrated at the game crashing, and fair play to R8 Games for getting the update out so quickly after the game’s launch.
