Everspace 2 Update 1.016

Rockfish Games has pushed out Everspace 2 update 1.016, and this will show up as hotfix version 1.2.40068 on PC. This brings a short list of fixes to players, though it does solve the irritating issue that prevents pilots from completing all challenges.

Everspace 2 Update 1.016 Patch Notes for May 31:

Changelog Update 1.2.40068:
  • Fixed that the “3-Shield-Generators” puzzle on Vesna could not be completed
  • Note: Players need to leave and re-enter the location or load a savegame in the location for the fix to apply correctly.
    Integrated community suggestions for translation improvements from Crowdin
  • Fixed that some characters in Traditional Chinese subtitles were not correctly displayed
  • [Steam Deck] Always use DirectX 11 (regardless of initial DirectX selection) to prevent VRAM related crashes

Per the studio, it will be “a while” before the next update is released, though they did mention that “performance optimization opportunities” are being looked into. That said, Rockfish did say they are listening still while work on the expansion is still on-going, so it’s not like support for the game is ending at all.

In case you didn’t know, the Incursions patch was released just last month, which you can read about here.
