Changes and updates to games are typically done to add new, cool features or fix balance issues. But some are weird, and hilarious (and entirely true). For example:
Elder Scrolls Online-Rescued goat trapped in a wall.
World of Warcraft- Fixed global pandemic afflicting Azeroth.
Dwarf Fortress- Stopped guards from changing gender every twenty steps.
Destiny- Expunged Peter Dinklage
FIFA 16- Removed pedophile
Are there any other weird and funny updates we can think of that actually happened?

You could probably put anything from dwarf fortress here.

The devs working on Elite: Dangerous released a patch that made their AI smarter and gave them access to crafting. Long story short, the AI built ships with superweapons, pulled players out of warp, and ripped them to shreds. It got to the point where the AI were actively hunting players to test their new weapons. Eventually, the devs took down the game and limited the AI's access to crafting to prevent that from happening again. Still, crazy to think an AI takeover almost happened.

Was the WoW thing that one time people used their pets to spread a debuff that murdered everyone? I remember reading about that and laughing my ass off.

Destiny: make the purple ball shinier

Killing Dinklebot was not hilarious in any way! I miss him :*(
-
I liked the witcher devs adding in the bovine defence force to stop people abusing the killing of cows. Was the best way to fix a problem without addressing the problem lol
