Update 2.2.1 - Changelog

Squad 44 · published 7 Jul 2025, 16:22 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Recruits!

Update v2.2.1 will be available to download at 11AM PT. Work continues behind the scenes to bring out another hotfix for HDD loading. We have determined that the EAC update caused this issue. We will work with EAC to rectify this issue for players as a priority.

In the meantime, we highly suggest players install Squad 44 on an SSD instead of an HDD to prevent long loading times and server timeouts.

Before deploying, remember to clear your cache before joining a server for a smooth operation. Thank you, recruits!

If you're looking for other fellow recruits to fight alongside, we suggest joining the Squad 44 Community Discord!
