Do we have an update on an expected release time for the Day One Patch for Xbox (Australia)? Really excited to jump into the game.

Sadly no ETA for now, waiting for news from the platform.

Having an issue on ps5 where when I open the loot menu the item I inspect appears behind the loot menu so I can’t read it :-/

Were you able to find a way to steadily reproduce this? If so, can you please make a video?

Any news on the xbox patch release?

Still pending I'm afraid.

Not exactly. We're lacking the photo mode. But probably because of the 'low res' textures on console :/

It's going to be patched in with one of the following updates.

Soooo. Didn’t fix the whole turn based enemies taking 45 seconds to end their turn (yup I timed it) issue at all. Drezen is still unplayable in turn based for me, tried multiple saves, started a new run, and even tried on different computers. And yes I’ve tried swapping between turn based and real time mode to clear it and no luck.

Hello, have you downloaded the patch and done a file integrity check?

Before I go on I'm not having a pop at you personally.

Then why not delay it? It's obviously not ready. Textures aren't just bad, they're nearly none existent in places.

Remember this is the "Enhanced" edition.

In a heartbeat I paid £50 for this because of Kingmaker and we got invisible walls, flickering shadows, dissapearing hotbars and textures.

A day 1 patch that isn't out day 2 and probably wont be until Monday

And god knows how long for a patch that gives the game textures.

Smh

I'm sorry, there is an unexpected delay with patch deployment on the platform's side. Multiple critical issues should be fixed once the patch hits, I can only apologize and ask to wait.

Well considering they didn’t fix Kingmaker on Xbox I don’t have high expectations for the new game on Xbox either.

That had a sad, but solid reason. We've lost ownership of Kingmaker shortly after its console release in 2019. Studio gained independence from its parent company, but the rights for the game remained in that company. We couldn't speak about this earlier, but I hope this explains much now.

Wrath is a wholly different story, and we are commited to patching and fixing it for as long as it is necessary to give a smooth and enjoyable experience.

Whelp I just turned the game back on to document it and the problem is gone. Must have been a problem on my end?

I’ll let you know if it comes up again. I will note that this only happened once I downloaded the paid dlc’s last night, so there might have been a problem with integrating the dlc’s on my machine until today? Dunno

Hard to say. Could be simply elusive/appearing in certain circumstances. If you're able to steadily reproduce the issue, let me know.

thanks that worked as a fix.

although once i got on the island i noticed that none of the traps or chests could be opened properly with the x button. my character wont even approach the locations of either one and wont even attempt to open then normally. i get them option to break chests but no attempt texts for either one. especially the traps. theres no success or failed text on the log.

i know you're not a dev so telling u is kind of pointless but aye, might as well document it here lol.

We're reading! So thanks :)

Can you please record a video of this and send it to me?

Unsure if this one has been reported, and it may possibly not be a bug? Playing the PS4 version on PS5 and I was starting up the Midnight Isle DLC; whenever I go to choose a destination to start an expedition, it just keeps me locked on the map and doesn't progress. I can press circle to back out but that's pretty much it.

Known, fix in progress. Thank you.

Sure! Is it okay to just show the loot box overlap? I can record the other overlaps but because the character sheet/inventory/equipment sheet is full screen it looks like nothing happens. Since the loot box isn’t full screen you can best see the overlap there

What we need are the steps to reproduce the issue so we understand what causes it. A set of actions that leads to it.

The games textures are horrendous. You said this is purposeful to test stability.

This isn't an online game so my question is.

Don't you have consoles down at Owlcat Studios?

Why are we paying to "stress test" this offline "Enhanced" Edition?

It's not a test, it's a measure to ensure stability at launch. We'll be looking at this once we're through the initial launch phase.

Ah, that one is known, fix is already in the works. Thanks for clarification!

I’m playing on PS5. I’ve run into a problem where the R3 info page appears behind the loot box window, the character info screen, the inventory, etc. So you can’t read the info page since it’s blocked. This also happens with the context menu when pressing square for items in the inventory, so I’ve been having to guess how many times to press ”down” on the context menu to do things like drop items or write to a spell book. Def not gamebreaking but kind of annoying…loving the game so far!

Noted, I've passed this to the team. Thank you for feedback!

Update: Can you please record a video and upload it, giving me the link? Thank you.

So I've played about 6 hours in. Restarted twice before leave The Maze. I play full turn base for all combat... I like that feel of sitting around a table gaming slowness. But anyways. I'm not seeing performance issues on the Xbox series X. Thank You Guys.

Now I do have to report two bugs I found that are annoying.

1) The "hot" keys on the action bar dissappear at odd times. So I can't choose spells, charge, vital strike, etc..... I did find I can get them back by saving my game then reloading. Now that's a pain.

2) This one hurts. Some times when I switch from Eqipment to inventory with characters to fast.....the "cards" to select equipment, inventory, character, etc freeze on the screen. The only way to get rid of them is to turn off your Xbox since you can't even get to the save/load menu. The game is literally frozen. It has happen to me 3 times in about 6 hours.

But otherwise great job on console so far. I did 4 runs on PC and have bee...

Hello! Happy to hear that! Note that you are playing the version without the day 1 patch x) Xbox is delaying the update for certification.

The game should behave better after the update.

I am in act 2 on ps5. In general, it works well - solid 60 fps 95% of the time. Couple of bugs though even with newest patch.

Arcanist (and all it's archetypes) is broken. Cannot prepare spells. Known issue, they are working on a fix. I unfortunately had to roll seeker sorcerer instead.

Sometimes it happens that for some reason your tooltips that should get in foreground stay in background and there's no way to get them out of there. They react to buttons and everything, you just cannot see them. I think it happened twice to me so far. And nothing works, not even reloading save, you need to restart the game and reload the save that way (fortunately even if you save in this state, it will fix itself after restart). This is probably the most annoying thing I encountered so far.

Sometimes the gamepad buttons don't react on the first press, but do react on the 2nd. Doesn't happen too often though.

And the Midnight Isles DLC is also kinda broken. First of...

The issue with the character selection window in the DLC is known and should be fixed soon.

Hey so I’ve encountered a bug when trying to alter the characters during lvl up. If the auto level option is on for companions and you try to change any of the selections about half the time the game will hard freeze on me.(Xbox Series X)

Hello, Xbox is still lacking the critical day 1 update, which is delayed due to certification. We're waiting for it to be deployed soon. Please check if the issue remains when it hits. Temporary workaround could be setting a higher difficulty.

I'm sure you've answered this 10,000 times already but are some of the QoL fixes going to be implemented on Kingmaker?

It's technically impossible, I'm afraid. The games are not backwards-compatible.

And no less important, back in 2019, when becoming an independent company, we've lost ownership for Kingmaker. That's the reason there are no updates anymore to the first game.

Same my dude same.

Got KM free on PS5 played like 90% of it. But the bugs and the call forth ability ruined it for me. On top of the difficulty spike at the end and all the set you up to fail kingdom requests lol. Still an amazing game though.

Want to play Wrath so so so very badly but am so scared of it being a buggy molasses swamp. I will maintain this vigil with you brother. At least until I stumble into an extra $40.

Our ability to support Kingmaker consoles was very limited. Detaching from a parent company into an independent studio, we've lost ownership of the game back in 2019, and it's still the case by this day.

Thankfully, it's a very different story with Wrath. Being the owners of the game, we are commited to support, fix and update the game for as long as it's needed to provide a satisfying experience.
