Where is patch 9?

Is there another patch coming for PS5 and Xbox Series X? Patch 8 was released on the 8th of January 2024 and no indication seems to been have given about the release of another patch. Performance on consoles seems to be better compared to the unacceptable performance on PC, however bugs/glitches and poor visual quality seem to be present. I recently purchased the game for PS5 but am yet to open it and plan to return it after substantial research allowed me to see all the issues with the game even after after 11 months of its release.

Digital Foundry has highlighted as late as two months ago how the game is still completely broken on PC and labeled it the worst PC port of 2023.The fact the game was released in an unplayable state for a triple A game price was appalling. The length of time it took for EA and Respawn to deploy patches was unbelievably long considering the size Respawn Entertainment and EA being a multi million publisher, the patches also seemed to do little. It took four months for the performance mode to receive a substantial improvement in its fps but the only change is this patch seemed to be disabling ray tracing on consoles, why would that take four months?

The fact that we have to request information on when the next patch will be deployed so the game can be playable is beyond frustrating and a vast contrast between the conduct of other game Studios such as Santa Moniac.

I would recommend people on all platforms to stay away from the game until a substantial and well crafted patch 9 is published.
