Since the launch of v028 everyone has been showing their love and sending in feedback! We wanted to quickly fix as many of the issues players are facing before we move onto building our next major update. Looking forward to your feedback!
It is worth mentioning here that if you’re one of the unlucky few who are having issues launching the game with a fatal error it is 99.99% likely caused by outdated NPU drivers from your Intel hardware.
