    What does a 'patch' do?

    It helps fix anti-piracy of a game.
    Or it's a patch to make the game a different language.

    As johnx said. A patch just changes the file in some way. How it changes the file depends on what the patch is designed to do.

    they already said it but...

    - Group machine language instructions added to a program in order to correct an error or perform a task
    - A patch is an update of computer software or a web browser that can fix problems, add new functions
    - A patch can also be a program that helps because a program does not freeze. repairing some of the major or minor problems. or that enables the start of the program

    In games it can chenge multiple things of a game. things like:

    - language
    - sound errors, graphics, etc.
    - changes sprites
    - morph senarios
    - change music
    and more
