As we all already know, Bloodborne is a game that has become a huge hit on the PlayStation 4 console which has already sold over one million copies all around the globe. With such a massive achievement, there are bound to be hiccups along the way, especially for a brand new franchise such as Bloodborne. So the guys at Sony have revealed more information about Bloodborne’s next patch which aims to solve several user issues.
The 1.03 patch reduces some specific load times as well as to optimize performance. It also fixes some bugs which after a lot of continuous playing. Those were the main problems that got fixed, but the patch includes some more minor fixes.
The game’s developers are still working to establish a global release of the 1.03 patch before the end of April. Even though the exact date hasn’t been specified yet, popular communities and forums are still providing valuable feedback to the game’s developers to ensure all bases are covered.

Go to: PS4’s Home Menu, Settings, hit Network, View Connection Status and NAT Type. Check whether the NAT type is 1, 2 or 3. Note that you might not have a working connection when playing under type 3.
