UPDATED April 30

Patch Notes – April 30th, 2024

Here are the Patch Notes for April 30th, 2024.

The following notes are for our upcoming, April 30th, 2024 patch. It is scheduled to begin rolling out on console and PC at roughly 8AM EDT.

Players will be able to purchase the Sissy Wildflower Outfit for $2.99 USD.

For players who have reached Level 99, we have our free Blackout Cosmetics releasing this day, as well. The Level 99 Blackout Cosmetic is an all black version of a characters base outfit with two exceptions, Virginia and Leatherface. Virginia will receive a Blackout Cosmetic in the future. Leatherface will not have an outfit; instead, he will have an all black chainsaw called Oil Slick. Players can expect future Leatherface cosmetics to be similar to that of Nicotero Leatherface. While the whole Family is the focus of our game, Leatherface is the figurehead and the face of the franchise. From the mask to the apron and every stitch between, his cosmetics should reflect that icon status, without altering the elements that make up the whole.

If you're already at level 99, the Blackout cosmetics will be automatically unlocked for you after the update. Thank you for spending so much time in Muerto County with us!

The patch will address the following issues:
