Update 3 – PC
Dear Community, Update 3 is now live on PC, following last week’s release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The PC update was briefly held back after our team identified a performance-impacting issue during final testing. That issue has been resolved, and the update is now available. We appreciate your patience as we ensured a stable release. Update 3 focuses on continued stability improvements and addressing community feedback. Please see a detailed outline below of the improvements included and, as always, please be aware that the list may contain some game and mission details that could be considered spoilers.
