By parity, the developers mean that all consoles and PCs have applied the same bug fixes. This means there will be no localized issues characteristic of a particular platform.

A glance through the patch notes reveals that Remedy Entertainment is looking to improve the general stability of the game. This also shows that they listen to the community, giving constant feedback about the game.

The Xbox Series X|S received the patch update numbered 1.0.0.7, which fixes several bugs and localization issues.
