Patch notes
Every update, with the developer's own notes and what a fresh extraction of the patched build shows underneath them. The data half is where the numbers are: which attribute moved, what a tier is worth now, and what changed without anyone writing it down.
Hotfix, 28 September 2026
Steam build 25513890.
A 6.1GB download with a one-line note, and the files back the note up: no ability, weapon, enemy, reward or operation value moved, so every number on this site still holds. What changed sits in the executable and in a few level files.
What changed in the files
Read out of the patched assets rather than from the notes. Anything marked as not in the notes was found in the data alone.
Frame generation gets its own systemNot in the notes
The only new class in the patched executable is a frame generation subsystem. Frame generation leans on the graphics card and driver more than most features do, which makes it the likeliest home for a crash that only some hardware hits. The files can't confirm that, though.
Texture pools reset between mapsNot in the notes
A new engine setting, on by default, rebuilds the virtual texture pools on every map change instead of keeping one shared set for the whole session. The build also logs it when a pool fails to release.
Lift markers on Bespin and in the finaleNot in the notes
Three interactions now always show their on-screen marker: the Turbolift to Lobby and one unlabelled interaction in Casualties of War, and the Use Lift prompt in The Infinite Coil. Each gained a flag that forces the marker on.
Your choices are reported backNot in the notes
The narrative manager now sends a telemetry event for every conversation choice, carrying the line and the text of the option you picked, and another for every consequence that lands, carrying the operation and its parameters. Nothing changes in play.
Maps changed scenery onlyNot in the notes
About 230 level files were re-saved with small edits, mostly reshaped splines and a few rotated props. Cover, spawn points and objectives on all 72 tactical maps are unchanged, so the charts here still match.

- Fixed a crash issue for various hardware setups.
Update 1.1, 9 September 2026
Steam build 25134257.
A bug-fix patch, and the two fixes that matter most to a build are the ones the notes describe least. Tel-Rea's Force attacks and the DC-17m now run through the ordinary weapon damage path, so critical damage and the Ranged Damage cross training finally reach them. Scatterguns II to IV stop firing tier one's numbers.
What changed in the files
Read out of the patched assets rather than from the notes. Anything marked as not in the notes was found in the data alone.
Force attacks fire from a weapon now
Push, Pull and Shockwave each carried a flat damage number on the effect itself, which is why bonuses slid off them. Every tier now reads Tel-Rea's own Force weapon (6 damage, 4 critical damage, optimal range 1,000) and adds its tier bonus on top. The totals haven't moved: Push runs 6 to 12 across its six tiers, Pull 12 to 24, Shockwave 12 to 24. What changed is that criticals and damage bonuses reach them at all.
The Ranged Damage cross training was paying twice
It added a point to the weapon's own damage and another to the operator's bonus damage. The second one is now zero, so the training is worth the +1 it always claimed.
Scatterguns II, III and IV
The weapon tables have always read 18, 24, 30 and 36 damage per tier. The three upper abilities each dropped a pair of inherited blueprint overrides, which is the fix for them reading tier one's values; nothing in the tables moved.
DC-17m Anti-Armor
The flat 12 damage that sat on the grenade effect is gone, and the launcher now carries its own attributes: 12 grenade damage, a 400 blast radius and an 1,800 throw distance. Damage read off a weapon can crit and can take a bonus, and that is what the note about base damage is describing.
Shockwave ignores armorNot in the notes
All six tiers gained the Ignores Armor property. Push and Pull already had it, so the Wayseeker line is now consistent with itself.
Droid Dismantler checks what died
The passive gained an event filter that reads the dying unit's tags before it pays out, which is the droids-only fix.
A Life of Labor II is no longer instant
It was an Instant effect, and an instant effect in this engine changes the attribute permanently rather than for a duration. That's why buying the second tier repeatedly stacked its bonus forever.
Enhanced Scanners says what it doesNot in the notes
All six tiers described themselves as negating all Defense. They now say reducing Defense, which is what the effect has always applied: -4 Defense and +20% chance to hit for attackers.
Secondary specializations carry their identity
Every secondary specialization now carries its own specialization tag, where the field used to be empty. That tag is what a specialization requirement tests against, so secondaries weren't counting.
Trilla watches who rallies Tel
The Second Sister gained a passive that retargets whoever rallied Tel-Rea, alongside the existing one that keeps her attention on Tel.
Environment Geometry Detail joins the quality presetsNot in the notes
The setting already existed. What is new is that the overall quality presets now set it: Low turns it off, Medium and above turn it on. The game's own description says newer cards are unlikely to gain anything by disabling it, which narrows the advice in the minimum-spec note below to older hardware.
Two typos in the game's textNot in the notes
The Repeating Blaster description spelled powerful as poweful, and the Armory tutorial offered stat boots instead of stat boosts. Both are fixed, and both were quoted on this site as the game wrote them.
The tier numbers on Push, Pull and Shockwavenow read as what each tier adds to Tel-Rea's Force damage, the same way Sweeping Salvohas always been read against the repeater's own damage.

Running on an older card
The patch adds advice for GTX 10-series and RTX 20-series cards that meet the minimum specification: open Options, then Graphics, and switch Environment Geometry Detail off. In the files that setting is the Nanite toggle, and the Low quality preset already turns it off, so the step only matters if you are running a higher preset. The setting's own description is blunt about who benefits: turning it off can lift frame rates on older cards at the cost of shadow and object detail, and newer cards are unlikely to gain anything from it.
