Here are the patch notes for Patch #15: The Traitor Curse Part 1 which just went live on Steam and will be out shortly on the Microsoft Store.



Mission: Mercantile HL 70-04
Wyrmwood reports indicate that the Moebian VI have set up a base of operations in the Carnival. What's more, they are using some of the more disreputable areas of Mercantile HL 70-04 to produce stimms and distribute them out to the rest of the Hive.

Dev note: This mission will be available on the mission board 1-2 hours after the patch release.

Our work on The Carnival began with searching for a mood and backstory that differed from what you’ve previo... Read more
