Patch 1.04 of Bloodborne is live today (available for download now at almost 3 GB’s), and From Software has added some much needed things amongst the various tweaks and fixes. Among the many fixes of the game, players will note that the storage of Blood Vials and Quicksilver Bullets has been upgraded from 99 to a staggering 600.
Players will also now be able to join each other through password matching regardless of level, which will make co-op a bit easier, but perhaps PvP play a bit harder for some of the lower level Bloodborne-ers. There are a ton of other changes made (view full notes below), and From Software will have more news on DLC after E3. Until then, go out and download the patch and tell us how you like it!
