Patch Notes - What's new in the latest update?
We've released a brand new patch alongside the new DLC Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Forges Of Corruption Expansion, so read on below to see what we've added. We are excited that we were able to add 2 highly requested features from players - Horde Mode and a Navigation Guide!
Main Features
💀HORDE MODE: We’ve added a free Horde Mode for all players. How long can you survive against the onslaught of heretics and daemons?
🧭NAVIGATION GUIDE: Even the Emperor’s finest sometimes get lost. We’ve added a new Navigation Guide that, when activated, shows your next objective and a recommended route to reach it. The guide appears for a few seconds by default, but can be toggled to always display by enabling Options > Gameplay > Toggle Navigation Guide. By default the Navigation Guide is bound to N on PC, Back on Xbox, the Touchpad on PlayStation, and to - on Nintendo Switch.
🏆NEW ACHIEVEMENTS/TROPHIES: Horde Mode comes with three new Achievements/Trophies to unlock
🐛BUG FIXES AND IMPROVEMENTS: We’ve fixed numerous issues and made quality of life improvements - see full notes below
QoL Improvements
Added a new Navigation Guide. This shows your next objective and a recommended route to reach it.
Added a new Option in Accessibility for “Chainsword Cutting Mode”. This can now be set to the following:
Repeated Tap: repeatedly press the input to maintain cutting mode (default setting)
Hold Input: hold down the input to maintain cutting mode
No Input (Automatic): no input is needed to maintain cutting mode (after initiating the chainsword lunge)
To celebrate our new Forges of Corruption DLC, we’ve added a new main menu background. This is available to all players, whether you own the DLC or not, and can be set in the Options menu (Accessibility > Main Menu Background)
Added two new control schemes: Alternate Controller Layouts 6 and 7
Made improvements to various screens and UI in the game
Added a confirmation requirement when setting the Screen Mode in Options
Improved Aura of Doom visual effects so they don’t obscure the screen as much
Bug Fixes
General
Numerous text corrections and improvements in multiple languages
Performance and stability improvements and crash fixes across multiple levels
Fixed the Charge ability not working when stood on specific types of scenery
Chapter 1
Sector Imperialis: Fixed an issue where an enemy spawned in a wall, which made it difficult to get 100% enemy kills on this level
Sector Imperialis: Fixed an issue where the player can end the final encounter without killing both Chaos Terminators
Silent Martyrs: Fixed a collision issue in the Red Key room
Forbidden Knowledge: Fixed an issue where the player can get stuck in a wall during the boss encounter

Canyon Magrails: Fixed an issue where a Screamer of Tzeentch would not pursue the player
Sanctum Manufactorum: Fixed an issue where Ambulls could not enter part of the opening cave area
Sanctum Manufactorum: Fixed various issues with the lift area leading to the final boss encounter, where the player could get stuck
Heresy Lurks: Fixed an issue where a Plasmagun Cultist was not aware of the player

The Great Unclean One will no longer spawn up to 1000 nurglings if left for long periods of time. This was arguably too many nurglings
The correct death quote will now display when the player is killed by the Sorcerer in all circumstances
Added a new death quote for when Chosen Champions kill the player, as the latter happens quite a lot (sorry)

We’re partnering with the European Space Agency for Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life!
Hey everyone, we hope you’re having a great August so far!
If you're one of those space lovers, you might have seen that the European Space Agency (ESA) are at Gamescom this year, which seems like a fitting time to let you all know that we are partnering with them once more for Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life!
The European Space Agency is Europe’s gateway to space. Its mission is to shape the development of Europe’s space capability and ensure that investment in space continues to deliver benefits to the citizens of Europe and the world.
We are going to be working with the folks at ESA to make sure we can bring authenticity and real-world science into our sequel to Mars Horizon. As the sequel focuses on The Search for Life, we are excited to talk to them about biosignature detection, sample return, and much more. Their partnership ensures that we can create an authentic game in Mars Horizon 2, as we did with the first!
