Bug Fixes & Improvements

Expeditioners, the 1.5.1 hotfix is now live!

Thanks to your reports, we have worked on a number of fixes listed below:

Gameplay

• Fixed Monoco’s weapon “Cannaro” being unobtainable from Chromatic Machinapieds

  • Players who already defeated the boss will automatically receive the weapon in their inventory, unless they started a NG+(+) after that

• Fixed Esquim not applying Mark to all enemies when a skill had 0 hits.

• Fixed a targeting issue caused by using a Recoat item followed by ‘Retry Battle’, which resulted in the player being unable to target the middle enemy or character.

• Fixed a soft-lock when attempting to load a save without hovering any slot while backup saves were displayed.

• Fixed upgrade of the weapons to level 34 when spamming Upgrade weapon and change character buttons

  • Level 34 weapons have been reverted back to level 33

• Fixed character being able to use other characters' weapon when quickly switching weapon tabs after changing weapon

Environment

• Nerfed the hardest boss in Verso’s Drafts (red lifebuoy) by moving it slightly to make a quest easier.

• Fixed various environment issues (collisions, misplaced assets, missing or incorrect footsteps SFX) across Verso's Drafts, the World Map, and other levels.

Audio & Music

• Improved environmental ambiances and spatial audio for better immersion in Verso’s Drafts

• Enhanced audio mixes for select characters, combos, and finishers

• Multiple audio & music issues were resolved, including:

  • Missing music after defeating new Endless Tower bosses.

  • Missing subtitle line for Sciel in one of the new cinematics.

  • Missing Barbapapa status effect SFX when receiving a second stack.

  • Missing some SFX for Licorne enemy in Verso’s Drafts.

  • Missing SFX for Paint Cage explosions in Verso's Drafts.

  • Music and SFX not pausing when opening pause menu during cinematic sequence with slow motion enabled, resulting in audio desynchronization for the remainder of the cinematic sequence

Localization

Fixed various localization issues, including:

• Subtitles in Root Of All Evil cinematics disappearing too fast.

• Overlapping text in Pictos & Luminas lists.

• Autoplay dialogue options swapped when the title is set to LATAM Spanish.

• Incorrect text displayed during Flying Manor side quest when the title is set to Vietnamese.

• Verso’s skill Phantom Stars displaying HTML in combat when the title is set to Vietnamese.

Other

We are aware of various issues encountered, particularly the one reported by some of you who are having difficulty launching the title on Windows 11.

One of these issues is caused by Windows Security reporting false positives when launching. This has been fixed as part of the v1.5.1 hotfix as of 17:00 CET.

The other issue causing this problem is related to the Windows Smart App Control feature. Turning it off to fix it is not recommended as this will remove the feature permanently from your system. We are investigating this issue and hope to resolve it as soon as possible so we suggest waiting for the next hotfix!

Until then,

Tomorrow comes!

And as always thanks for your support and for your reports via the official Typeform!
