Patch history & verification

Update 4 'Revelations' (2026-07-07) + Update 4 Hotfix 2 (2026-07-29)Sep 20, 2026
Second-pass re-check: Re-read PCGamingWiki wikitext and Steam news: current patch is Update 4 (2026-07-07) with Hotfix 2 (2026-07-29). No aspect-ratio changes noted; Nexus mods still unopened (403).
Current buildSep 20, 2026
Read PCGamingWiki Video section. Flawless Widescreen's DOOM module is the 2016 game, not The Dark Ages, so it was not counted. Nexus returned 403, so mod pages are unverified; HUD edge behavior not confirmed (conservative value). Overall rating held at Good (not Excellent) because 32:9/HUD/cutscene details could not be independently confirmed.
