“All the upgrades from the Community Standing Skill Tree are meant to provide you with a mixture of QoL and gameplay benefits,” the developers note. “A few of the traits will even help collectors finish out their hunt for cosmetics and Grave Locks.” You can read more about the patch onBethesda’s official site.
Microsoftannouncedthat Arkane Austin together withHi-Fi Rush developers Tango Gameworkswould close on May 7th, in what Xbox’s Matt Booty termed a “consolidation of our Bethesda studio teams, so that we can invest more deeply in our portfolio of games and new IP.”
While it’ll never be the game it could have been, Arkane Austin managing to add offline support in the face of layoffs means that Redfall won’t vanish as and when Microsoft turns off its servers. “So many people worked so hard to make this patch a reality, even after they learned Arkane was closing,” lead narrative designer Steve Powerswrote on Xitteras the patch went live last night. “I am so immensely proud of the Arkane team and will treasure my time with them forever.”
Best of luck to all of Arkane Austin’s survivors.
