Hello! We've been hard at work fixing up the issues that y'all have reported since 30XX entered 1.0 on August 9th. We wanted to share where our focus is this week, as well as list most of the issues we've fixed in the past few days. Today's post is only focused on fixes & Quality of Life stuff - after we've got all the 1.0 kinks worked out, we'll be publishing our plans for Content Patch 1, the game's first post-release content patch. Those plans aren't final yet, but we're looking at adding new challenge characters, updating Glory Zone variety, adding new Augs of all sorts, and much more! Fix updates will continue to roll in this week and next - I really appreciate folks taking the time to tell us when something doesn't match their expectations! This list is accurate as of 1.00.8, which'll go live shortly after this post. We'll report another hotfix roundup later this week. We don't have an update about 30XX's Switch release yet. We'll update you as soon as we do.
