The most significant fix for dedicated explorers involves Corvette technology. A frustrating bug that caused tech to be wiped upon warping has been squashed, ensuring your ship's specialized loadouts remain intact during long-distance jumps. Additionally, the inventory system received a cleanup to prevent item duplication, a glitch that was beginning to skew the economy for some players.
For those spending time in the social hubs, the patch addresses unresponsive NPCs found near game tables. This fix ensures that the interactive elements of the Xeno Arena environment function as intended, removing the awkward standstills that occurred when trying to engage with the new systems. Visual polish hasn't been ignored either, as the development team has eliminated flickering graphics that were plaguing underwater exploration.
PlayStation 5 players have a specific reason to celebrate with this deployment. Performance issues within The Anomaly—a notorious framerate killer during peak hours—have been optimized. This should lead to a much smoother experience when meeting up with other Travellers or handing in milestones at the central hub. While the patch is live on Steam now, console players across PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and previous-gen hardware can expect the update to hit their systems shortly after the standard certification process.
