NOW LIVE - PATCH 1.2

FREE MP MODE AND MAP

In our first wave of free new content, we're introducing the Elimination game mode. A 2-team mode for up to 12 players, this is last-team-standing with a twist - you can bring back fallen comrades by taking down your enemies. One kill can make all the difference. We're also releasing our first free MP map, Night Woods.

We’re still aware that a small number of people are still experiencing corrupt profile issues. To help us with fixing it, if you see a ‘corrupt save’ or ‘corrupt profile’ error on startup, could you immediately Alt-Tab out of the game and backup your save data to send to Customer Support. http://www.rebellion.co.uk/support
