Overview

  • Prototype and Prototype 2 received roughly 600 MB Steam updates without patch notes on September 29–30.
  • The patches initially broke essential community mods such as PrototypeFix needed for modern PCs, but modders quickly issued fixes.
  • Datamining uncovered new testing assets, including debug maps and locomotion or parkour tests that were not previously in the files.
  • Updated credits now include Beenox, Demonware, and Iron Galaxy, along with a reference to a Ubisoft Connect version that does not exist publicly.
  • These changes have prompted speculation about a possible remaster, yet no official announcement has come from Activision, Iron Galaxy, Beenox, or Demonware.
