Overview
- Update 1.2.0 launches the North Line content drop, pairing the Stella Montis region with a live, multi‑phase event rather than immediate access.
- Breaking New Ground asks players to donate basic materials to advance a global meter and earn Merits, with Phase II’s new progression track unlocking once the goal is met.
- Embark increased the event’s requirement within hours as donations poured in, and the community progress bar dropped back to roughly 1% before climbing again.
- The patch adds the Matriarch and the Stella Montis‑exclusive Shredder ARCs, the Aphelion rifle, Trailblazer and Seeker grenades, and Pulse, Deadline and Gas mines, plus new quests.
- Technical and balance changes include reduced movement latency to address desync, quest and achievement fixes, faster impact effects, terrain fixes, and economy tweaks, with a December Cold Snap update previewed next.
