Patch 7

2018-10-24

Last night we released Patch 7 (Build 1880), quick on the heels of Patch 6. This is another small one, mostly to fix a serious multiplayer error caused by using a special version of Unity required for the Xbox One version. New & Changed Features for Build 1880 • Added a main menu button to join the Overload server on Discord.
