While there are no official patch notes available yet, the PS5 update history menu shows that the patch brings about various stability and performance improvements and also addresses critical gameplay and progression issues.

Fabian Doehla also acknowledged that the game would be slightly different than before on consoles after the patch.

A YouTuber going by the name of DreamcastGuy mentioned that the game had already received a 43 GB update before its launch, which was considered to be the Day 0 update for the game.

Going by Fabian's word from the reply to the tweet, this new 28 GB update seems like the Day One patch he referred to in his tweet.
