Patch 1.40 for the PS3 game Resistance 2 was released on January 26, 2009. A follow Patch 1.50 was released on March 25, 2009

The patch fixes numerous issues in Resistance 2, but the most important is probably the resetting of a player's stats to level 1 in multiplayer. In a post on the official Playstation Blog, Insomniac said, "For several of those cases, this patch will not only bring back all the XP, stats, and attributes that you’ve lost, but it will also add to your character profile the XP/stats/attributes that you’ve earned since those levels were reset."
