Known Critical Bugs

These will be addressed in the next patch:

  • Great Corpse Worm's grab hitbox can extend far, far beyond the intended range(this was accidentally introduced during beta shortly before EA launch, apologies for the frustration it has caused)

New Features & Polish

  • Added a “Run in Background” checkbox to gameplay options, which keeps the game running and playing audio even when not in focus and is on by default
  • To help diagnose any controller issues, there is a new Input Diagnostics HUD checkbox in the Input Options

Critical Bug Fixes

  • Fixed loading demo saves, under certain seeds, leaving the player falling through the floor
  • Fixed several Creation Rituals being unlocked sooner than intended, if already unlocked, they will be removed upon visiting the Realms screen
  • Fix entering the Saintswood boss arena and then leaving before facing the boss, and dying in that specific room causing the player to spawn back in the boss arena behind the boss
  • Fix being teleported back to face the Worm when dying even after leaving the room
  • Fix deleting the last played save in the Realms screen, returning to the title, and choosing Continue hanging the executable

Smaller Bug Fixes

  • Cages no longer have a chance to play a rattle sound when pausing the game
