Sacred 2 Remaster began its path with numerous technical issues, yet developers are working hard on the fixes. According to the official statement, many issues that players encountered in the game are tied to the memory leaks. However, the most complicated problems are coming from the code written 20 years ago for the original game. The developers call this legacy code their greatest foe, yet one they are ready to beat.
“We also want to take this opportunity to apologize for the bumpy start and hope that with this new patch, you are able to enjoy the remaster without any bigger interruptions. Thank you so much for reporting bugs and providing feedback throughout all the different channels!” – Jumpgate and SparklingBit team.
