Hi everyone. Valve has recently released their new recommended currency conversions for Steam games and many game studios are beginning to implement these.

We are planning to follow Valve’s recommendations and update some of our non-USD price conversions. (Note that none of our base USD prices will change - this is only about updating currency conversion rates.)

In most cases our prices will remain lower than what Valve recommends. The major currencies will generally see increases of 2-10% - this includes Euros, Chinese yuan, British pounds, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars,... Read more

Hi everyone!

We’ve been pushing updates with hotfixes and improvements for 1.4 and Biotech over the last week. We tweaked fixes to make them more mod-friendly and have been collaborating with modders to make updates more seamless for everyone. I’ve added a cumulative changelog below for your enjoyment that covers aaaall of those updates.

Other recent changes for 1.4:

• Update 1.4.3525 hotfixes some issues
  
• Recent patches for 1.4
  
• [Edit] We're working on a 1.4 content update!

Hey all,

Response to the Biotech release has been amazing! Just here to let you know that we've put out two hotfix updates so far. Change logs are below.

We're watching and gathering issue reports across forums, Discord, and reddit and will continue to fix critical issues as they're discovered. Less-critical things will be left for slower updates later - it's important to stick to essentials for hotfixes, because it's easy to break one thing while fixing another and maintaining stability is our top priority now.

If you're willing to help report or investigate issues, please join the RimWorld Official Development Discord server[discord.gg]. Thanks to all those who took the time to report issues.

Cheers,
-Ty
