Returnal could be due for a big update, judging by a large patch recently spotted for the developer beta version of the game.
The self-describing Twitter account PlayStation Game Size shared the news about the internal update, which it says increases the game's size by about 6 GB. That's the only detail about the update we have so far, but the fact that the beta's size increased so much after the update indicates this may be something more significant than performance improvements and bug fixes.
One of the most commonly requested feature updates from the Returnal player community is a manual save system, which would allow players to stop a run partway through and return to it later. Housemarque acknowledged the requests soon after Returnal came out, but has made no official announcements about whether it will or won't be able to fulfill them.
