As we look towards the August 25th simultaneous platform release date, there is a real possibility that the Cert turnaround time and our work from home setups may shift that for PS4. When developing alongside PC, we have to factor in the Cert timeline. Meaning, we need everything from PC over to the console build for Cert days in advance. So we took the time necessary to do so, factoring in that certain content/code is required to go through Cert before launch. And while we’ve been working on the update from home, it seemed to have presented some issues. Notably with Cert uploading before we were able to send successfully.
All that to say that we are still hopeful and excited for a release on August 25th! It’s not every update that we release simultaneously on all platforms, and while the process to making that date a reality has presented some issues along the way, we maintain our eagerness to get this to you as soon as we can. We will keep you informed as we progress through the Cert process and in either case, once we have passed Cert we will share the news. Stay tuned to our social channels and this Forum post for any and all information as we receive it!
Heart of Deimos is a Mainline Update! With all new content for the new Infested landscape and everything that creeps and crawls within it. With mainline updates, as we’ve seen in the past, there is the likely chance that bugs slip through the cracks. Since we are aiming for a simultaneous launch across all platforms, we will be actively monitoring once live to remedy any issues that crop up and if they can be hotfixed. Keep in mind that there are certain types of fixes that touch on code that must pass the Cert checklist before we release them on PS4 - we will keep you informed if we come across bugs where that will be the case.
The total download size for this update will be ~ 5.70 GB. Once we have passed Cert we will share the news and an official launch time!
