Quick Fixes on the Road to Our Bigger Updates

Date: 2025-11-21 17:52:00

Still with me, Mister Harrow?

As we keep moving forward with the bigger improvements, we’re rolling out a set of quick fixes, polish updates, and a few additions to make the world feel more alive.

This patch includes the fix for an issue with wi-fi logic that you talked so much to us about. 

Both your phone and Frank’s phone can now reliably search the web when connected.

You’ll also find new environmental observations across several locations, controller improvements in tight spaces, and a batch of bug fixes addressing animation transitions, sound, localization, and more.

Thank you for your ongoing feedback—every report helps us make the experience better. Bigger updates are on the way, and in the meantime, we hope these fixes make your journey smoother!
