Kane's Wrath has officially been updated to version 1.01 today.
You should be able to get it through the auto-pather now, or download it here.
This comes after an accidental leak on EA's file server earlier on, meant for European testers. If you downloaded the leaked version of the patch, have no fear, it is identical to the released version.

The patch notes follow:
