Insomniac has released details on the next major patch for Resistance 3, 1.05, which is set to add absolute megatons of improvements, fixes and balance tweaks to the studio’s latest awesome first-person shooter.

The full list lies in wait below, but keep in mind that this next Resistance 3 patch will also add two more multiplayer maps, namely Creek and The Granery, both of which will become available when you grab the patch, once Sony approves it for release.

Insomniac is keen to stress that this patch “does not mark the end for Resistance 3 support” and that a custom playlist contest is on the way for Insomniac’s community, soon. Before you go poring through these patch notes, however, you’d do well to read Lisa’s awesome review of the game to get another take on the action.

Here you go:
