Hey Guardians!
We’re cooking up lots of stuff behind the scenes for Sunderfolk, and we’re so excited for this latest patch! We’re focusing on bug fixes, bringing some quality of life additions, and little doses of love!
Please note: The update will be released across all platforms simultaneously, but due to platform differences, you may see the update available for download at different times. Until both your Sunderfolk main game and Controller mobile app are updated, you will not be able to connect and play Sunderfolk. We expect the update to be available to all players (across all platforms) within 30 minutes of patch release time. All platforms will receive the update by 10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 17:00 UTC.
