We are very excited to be releasing this update, we've been working on it for a while, and we're certain most of you will appreciate it. It's....
ROYALE!
No it's not, here are the actual patch notes:
Combat Tested V1.5:
Added a new game mode: 'Quality Assurance'.
Added a new unlockable weapon, earned through playing 'Quality Assurance'.
Made adjustments to AI, making the game more difficult.
Improved graphics.
Quality Assurance is essentially an endless horde mode, in which over time larger and larger groups of enemies attack you. It's your job to survive as long as possible to get the highest score you can. It'll show you how far you've gotten, and you can compare your score with friends! If you don't have friends though, you're welcome to share your score on the Buckethead Entertainment Discord server . Join today!
It also says there's a new weapon up there in the patch notes, doesn't it? Well we don't wanna reveal too much, so I'm just gonna say it's awesome to use, and that it's unlocked by beating the 15th wave in Quality Assurance. You may even get a new way to use I.F. points, while wielding the weapon.
That will be all, thank you so much for playing, and have fun.

Combat Tested Patch 1.4 - A New Power!
Hey everyone, we're releasing a new power for you to play with. It's a super punch where if you hold the grip and trigger buttons and punch something, it'll get pushed back a fair amount. We've been having a ton of fun with this, and we trust you will too. We've also updated the stasis power so that stasis'd objects stay stasis'd after slicing them, looks and feels really good.
Patch notes:
- Added Power Punch
- Updated Stasis
- Updated several particle effects
- General bug fixes
- Balancing tweaked
- Improved performance
That about sums it up, please look forward to more content patches down the line.
Have fun playing!
