This update has been in development for some time, and in that time, one feature we did talk about throughout the year in 2024 has turned out to be too costly to continue. We made the hard call to no longer pursue controller support for this project, and instead focused our efforts on all the rest of the core gameplay features and content that make up this update. Controller support wasn't originally planned from the project’s start, and that put a large sunk cost into adding it later. Too large, at least for the moment. We may revisit in the future, but for now, we're putting controller support officially on the backburner. Sorry for any players who were looking forward to this feature - we hope there's enough meat on For The Fans to make up for it!

IMPORTANT: Unreal Engine Upgrade

We’ve updated the game’s engine version, which normally doesn’t require an announcement but this version does seem to trigger a first-time-launch shader compiling step for most users. This may cause a black screen for a minute or so when you first launch the game after updating, but will not happen again after that first delayed launch.
