Greetings, pilots!

Our Incursions update was our biggest yet, but big changes, including a significant engine change, introduced more bugs than expected. Since the release of our last update, our community team has been keeping an eye on reported issues, compiling lists of bugs for the team to look into. Today’s update brings solutions for many of the bugs introduced through the Incursions update and our migration to Unreal Engine 5.

We appreciate the ongoing support from our community of pilots across PC and consoles. Many of the fixes in this hotfix were only made possible because you helped us track down these issues.

Read on for a full list of changes:

With this hotfix in place, we plan to focus our attention on expansion content. We will be keeping an eye on ongoing bug reports to ensure we haven’t missed anything critical in this hotfix and will be logging issues as they come in. We’re aware there are a few more issues that need to be corrected on console, and pilots there may see another minor platform-specific update in the future.

See you in the stars,

Lee and the ROCKFISH Games team
