It’s time for another update from us on Immortal: Unchained!
We released two patches this week: One with balance changes on console, and one on PC where you can now revisit the tutorial level (Hidden Vaults) after you finish the Monolith Invasion event, and The Stream after you have finished the game.
Console stability is still high prio for us, and the next console patches will progressively improve that.
We also want to talk about some of the upcoming work we have planned. First up is new loot. During the last couple of weeks, we received feedback that some optional bosses and late-game chests don’t drop items that are exciting enough compared to the challenge they present. So we are now in the process of adding extra weapons & aspects, which we will add as a reward to these encounters. We will be gradually rolling this out on PC and consoles and, when we get closer to the release date, we will of course start showing off some of these new weapons...
As always, we are super happy to have such a devoted player base and love to get your feedback!
Patch notes 1.06
In this patch, we have mainly focused on items requested by the players. We have enabled players to go back to the Stream & Prison to collect lore items plus we bumped the cenotaph drop rate for certain rare enemies. All designers are working on NG+ so no balancing changes this week.
And a big shout-out to @Mr. Delval from this forum for helping us get this patch out!
Design:
- The tutorial / Prison obelisks can now be accessed automatically via fast travel after the invasion.
- The Stream obelisks can now be accessed automatically via fast travel after finishing the game.
- Bumped cenotaph drop rates for rare enemies
- HUD can now be disabled via the graphics settings to allow for better screenshots
- Most aspects now reveal the actual bonus they grant
- Added armor dye to more armor parts
Bugs & crashes:
- Fixed a crash on regenerated save files
- Fixed issue where the player cloth would pop in/out
- Revived enemies don't drop new loot when killed
News from the Cosmos!
Hello Warriors! Following the release of our first console patch yesterday, we wanted to provide you with more info on the future of Immortal: Unchained and give you an update on what we're currently working on.
Firstly, we're aware of issues some PS4 & Xbox One players have been experiencing with crashes, so right now we're focusing our efforts on improving stability on console. We hope yesterday's patch made significant steps towards improving this, but we are going to continue monitoring reports and plan to make further improvements to overall stability.
We intend to make ongoing improvements to weapon balancing, too, and have been listening to your feedback closely when it comes to this. We’ll detail any changes to weapon balancing in future patch notes.
We also know that many of you are looking forward to New Game+, which we are focused on releasing as a free update later this year. However, we don't want to launch NG+ until we're confident it is absolutely ready and that it provides the experience you expect. We hope to have more of an update on our progress with NG+ to share with you soon.
Besides that, we also have other tweaks, features and improvements that we're working on, too - some big and some small. We aren't quite ready to talk about them yet, but we are eager to share them with you in future updates!
More than anything, though, we want to thank all our players for their support. We've loved seeing comments from you all as you journey through the game, and are keen to continue taking your feedback into account to help us shape future updates. Thanks again for jumping into the world of Immortal: Unchained! See you in the Cosmos 😉

Hot-fixes to the latest patch
Hi there!
Unfortunately we introduced some bugs with the latest patch, which has now been hot-fixed. Should you still encounter issues with the new patch, please post in our forum and we'll get right on it!
Patch 1.04 is live!
We had some minor tech issues to solve before shipping this patch, but I'm hapy to say that it is now live!
Patch Summary:
In this patch, we have fixed some of the blockers & crashes that people have reported in the forum.
On the design side, we have increased the damage for assault rifles & SMGs and made ammo packs more likely to drop from enemies. Additionally, we have made stun-locking of certain bosses more difficult and added a clearer VFX trail to enemy melee attacks.
Bugs & crashes:
- Fixed a bug that could cause the boss chest to not spawn if players died at the same time as the boss
- Fixed a crash with equipping/unequipping certain weapons
- Fixed a progression blocker if players progress further in the game than intended prior to the invasion event
- Fixed an issue that caused the bridge in Arden prison to not extend
- Fixed a progression blocker for when players have killed all 3 beasts, but cannot deliver the hearts
- Fixed the missing pop-up for when collecting a duplicate armor shrine upgrade
- Made the obelisk UI factor in upgrades on total ammo capacity for consistency
- Fixed Polish grammar mistake on ladders
Balance Fixes:
- Assault rifles and SMGs have increased damage. Some specific weapons had minor adjustments to ammo to even out the total potential damage calculation.
- Significantly increased the chance of enemies dropping an ammo pack
- Naylon, Housecarl Invader, and Malog have modified stability damage multipliers to make stun-locking more difficult. Naylon also has increased stability.
- Added particle trail to the enemy melee attacks for better visual feedback on the damage are
First patch going live now!
The first patch is now going live and in this patch we have fixed some of the most common bugs & crashes that people have reported in forum.
Additionally, we have slightly nerfed the ammo for shotguns and buffed the ammo for assault rifles. This is just the first of many balance fixes, and while we believe that especially assault rifles still need another buff, we don’t want to just randomly throw numbers around. It’s a big game, and we want to do things correctly. However, we are as always looking forward to hearing your feedback!
Bugs & crashes:
- Fixed an issue that could corrupt the save file. Player will now be sent to the Monolith as a fallback for this issue.
- Fixed a crash on swapping weapons at obelisk
- Player no longer shoots when closing a pop-up
- Cosmetic fixes in level
- Audio fix on stomp attack
- Fixed exploit in the Stream, so you can't reach the obelisk from lower platform
- Aras no longer repeat the same line twice
- Power attacks are now blocked while interacting with NPCs to avoid an issue where you couldn’t un-aim
- Fixed a bug that caused the Frostclaw SMG to have 100m range instead of the correct 13m.
Balance Fixes:
- Assault rifles get an increased ammo cap based on assumed accuracy. In-accurate assault rifles get a bigger increase than accurate ones.
- All shotguns get a slightly decreased ammo cap.
- Iska's healing recovery was decreased from 55 seconds to 25 seconds
