AFTERBLAST - EA Launch Update, April 6, 2026

Hello Blasters!

This time the list is much longer! Some nice improvements and changes, new item for Nature, save slots backups and a lot more! 💗

Fixes:

• Fixed an issue where weapon reloading would block or interrupt the use of items. Now, using a usable item (like throwing a grenade) will correctly interrupt your weapon reload

• Fixed a bug where earned achievements wouldn't unlock on Steam until the game was closed. They will now trigger immediately

• Fixed an issue where clients could not see some trap projectiles

• Fixed a bug where interactable UI menus (like Virar's menu, the TAB menu, or level rewards) would remain stuck on a player's screen if they transitioned to a new map. Map changes now properly close these menus

• Fixed an issue where player companions could be killed by friendly fire

• Fixed the Cannon trap not dealing any damage

• Fixed an issue where the game would not remember your last selected save slot upon launch

• Removed incorrectly placed wall turrets from the right-side tunnel room on the first dungeon map

• Fixed an issue where Virar and Hilar's names were not visible from a distance in the portal room

• Fixed Summoner sometimes spawning enemies blocked in the ground
