1.1.36252 Update | Redemption Item Set | Artbook Revision | Tweaks & Bugfixes
Following up on the Armed & Dangerous update with new tweaks & bugfixes
Greetings Pilots!
We have a small patch that follows up on the Armed & Dangerous update going out today! Most notably, update 1.1.36252 significantly overhauls booster sound logic, giving set item and legendary boosters unique start and thruster audio.
The update also adds Redemption, an item set that didn’t quite make it into our last release. We’ve taken this update as an opportunity to fix a selection of bugs as well—a full changelog can be found at the bottom of this post.
A few small community-suggested tweaks have been made to localizations here and there to improve the text translations of EVERSPACE 2 in a few languages. Thank you to everyone who has submitted feedback through Crowdin!
This update is available on Steam, GOG, PlayStation, Xbox, and Microsoft Store.
