Overview

  • A base game update arrives Sept. 18 on PC and Mac, with consoles set for Sept. 23 after EA moved the patch up to catch issues before the next expansion.
  • EA is asking players to upvote bug reports on the EA Forums so the team can prioritize fixes based on community impact.
  • The Adventure Awaits expansion remains scheduled for Oct. 2, with active monitoring and hotfixes planned after launch.
  • A larger update is slated for Nov. 4 that will bundle additional fixes with new free content for all players.
  • The push follows recent player reports of a “DLC disabler” corrupting saves and other launch problems, and skepticism persists after a similar 2024 bug‑fix roadmap.
