      Patch is a software update that is aimed at fixing problems in the software or add new features (sometimes even remove features.)

      When an update is available the game launcher should notify you, unless it has a bug too :P

      The launcher will also allow you to download and install the patch update so you do not have to do the guesswork.

      A patch is a magical thing that you install that the guys who made this game made that fixes some problems (and may cause some too)
