A new Bloodborne patch was released earlier this week, but the only update notes Sony made available with it were in Japanese (or exceedingly vague). We now have the full English patch notes, as well as a look at a new Bloodborne-inspired ShareFactory theme.

As we already knew, among the 1.04 update’s changes is the ability to play cooperatively with others regardless of your respective levels, so long as you are using a password. This ensures you are deliberately trying to join up with certain players; when you don’t use a password, and thus are being matched up with random players online, you’ll still have to be within 10 levels or so of each other.

Chalice Dungeons have been reworked in a number of ways. You can now buy Short Ritual Root Chalices (used to join up with other Chalice players online) with Insight, while random rewards have been added to bosses.

Coinciding with the release of this week’s patch is an update for ShareFactory, the PS4’s video editor. A new, free Bloodborne theme is coming on June 2 that will let you further customize your videos with Bloodborne content, as pictured above.

Read on for the full patch notes. If you haven’t already picked the game up, you can get it right now for $40.
