theHunter: Call of the Wild Update Patch Notes
Bug Fixes
STABILITY
- Addressed a rare issue that could cause the game to crash after switching loadouts and further prevent it from launching before reaching the main menu.
- Developer’s Notes: The crash was related to specific files in the player’s save game, and removing them (or the entirety of the save data) would allow the game to launch again. The fix rectifies the underlying issue so that save data will be usable again.
- Fast traveling with the Hunting Dog in multiplayer occasionally caused the game to crash, but we sniffed out the problem and removed it.
- In rare circumstances pressing “Continue” in the main menu or changing Reserves will no longer lead to the game crashing.
- The franchise has fixed a crash that could happen to a very small number of players when accessing the Hunt Club menu.
UI
- Points of Interest icons will now be correctly hidden after using “Hide POI Icons” option.
PROGRESSION
- The game will no longer create a new save file on PC if a player’s save data has somehow disappeared. It will now try to restore the data from backups instead of creating a brand-new file.
GAMEPLAY
- The in-game DLC Store will now work correctly.
However, the franchise has requested players who may have encountered an issue not mentioned above to share the problems directly with the game’s official support website.
theHunter: Call of the Wild is available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Android, Microsoft Windows, Xbox Cloud Gaming.
