Overview
- EA and Bit Reactor released version 1.2 on Thursday, October 15, 2026, and the patch is available now across PC and console platforms including PlayStation 5.
- The update adds player‑selectable campaign modifiers that let new campaigns enable rules such as instant death options, changed health progression from Focus Points, missed assist shots, and locked respecs for a tougher or more tailored experience.
- Developers applied broad balance changes to pacing and classes, including targeted nerfs to named characters like Cly, limits to astromech and scout abilities, and large reductions to many Upgrade Facility costs to ease chronic credit shortages.
- A wide set of technical fixes addresses reported problems such as softlocks, inconsistent targeting and Overwatch interactions, performance issues, and other bugs that players flagged at launch.
- EA published full patch notes on its site and Bit Reactor has signaled more tuning to come; the update follows a launch that praised the game’s tactical systems but criticized its economy and bugs, and comes after the title sold over a million copies allowing the studio to restore some staff.
