PowerWash Simulator update 1.16

While we just got the big Shrek update for PowerWash Simulator last week, FuturLab has rolled out a new update for the game this October 15 on all platforms. Given the major patch that just introduced a ton of content, this new title update brings fixes and nothing more. Those on consoles will see this as PowerWash Simulator update 1.16 on last-gen, and version 1.015 on current-gen platforms.

What’s in the New PowerWash Simulator Update for October 15?
