Dear Weyland-Yutani Shareholders,

First of all, we apologize for the delay in releasing the patch notes. The board of directors had to scrupulously review the report.

The R&D department at Tindalos Interactive has been diligently working on "Building Better Games" with our latest project, Aliens: Dark Descent.

In pursuit of excellence, we're set to roll out our first major patch, meticulously crafted based on community feedback. This patch marks a significant leap in our constant drive to refine, balance, and achieve the perfect gaming organism.

With a mix of enhancements, balancing tweaks, and fixes, expect a more immersive descent into the alien world. This isn't just an update; it's a testament to our commitment to you, our esteemed shareholders.

Here’s a reminder of the topics for the general assembly regarding the next patch:

• Add the possibility to skip the prologue
  
• Introduce an option to make the campaign deathclock obsolete
  
• Implement an autosave feature when quitting the Otago
  
• And many more…

Please remember that profits should remain our primary consideration for the sake of the project's development. So, keep supporting us by giving the game a thumbs up.

Sincerely,

Romain Clavier
Deputy Administrator,
Weyland-Yutani Corporation

Hello everyone!

With the Great Gate closed, souls can no longer find their way and pass to the Realm Beyond. Lost and lingering in these lands, many have been consumed and corrupted by the Blight.

This update is focused around providing more replayability and customisation for players who already cleared a run or two. We're already working hard on the next region, but we feel it's important to provide some replayability options now rather than waiting for when all the regions are complete.

Another new feature in this update is kept a secret from these patch notes, can you find it? Let us know on Discord!

• After completing a successful run, you will be granted access to a new menu that will trigger before you start a new run.
  
• You can assign new difficulty modifiers here to make the game more challenging. Applying modifiers also increases the health and damage of enemies, but allows you to increase your Essence Multiplier beyond its original limit.
  
• Additionally, each challenge modifier applied will give you one Stray Soul for that run.
  
• These stray souls are meant to be purified and released. However, doing so will not remove the modifier they applied until the run ends.
  
• You can use Stray Souls at tribute altars to consume the Blight from them and get the altar’s reward without sacrificing Health. This will come in handy as challenge levels increase and Health becomes more valuable.
  
• Stray souls have another part to play, both in the current version and the official release. Can you uncover their mysteries?

Please note that this is a work-in-progress implementation of this feature. It will currently be available to everyone that completes the 3 regions. As more regions are added, an updated full run will be required to unlock it. There will also be more challenges added to it throughout the Early Access updates.

• After completing a successful run, you will be able to use your spare resources in future runs to augment them to your liking.
  
• Dormant Embers can be used to set the first Divine Spirit you encounter.
  
• Combat Runes can be used to start you off with a specific Enchantment.

Following on from the release of F1® 23 you can take on some of the first F1® 23 real-world challenges right now in F1® World.

Master these limited-time events this July to unlock some special items to customise your F1® World and My Team cars.

What is F1® World?

F1® World is an exciting new way to enjoy F1® 23, serving as a central hub for multiple game modes. It features solo and multiplayer experiences, a shared progression system, daily, weekly, and seasonal content, an overhauled Licence Level system, and many different ways to play.

If you want to read more about F1® World, head to the deep dive article here.

Each month, F1® World will be the home to a series of gameplay challenges that will test even the most seasoned veteran.

Bringing back the heat of Miami



To celebrate this weekend’s Austrian Grand Prix, players can compete in a hot lap challenge at the Red Bull Ring and instantly receive the iconic Oracle Red Bull Racing’s Miami Grand Prix car livery for use across F1® World and My Team modes.




Beat the respective lap times in the event and here’s what you’ll instantly unlock:



To access the event, head to F1 World > Play > Solo & Multiplayer Events > Race Week: Hot Lap Challenge.

Put a lid on it

We’re not just letting you unlock Red Bull Miami RB19. As a bonus for anyone that logs-in during the Austrian Grand Prix weekend, you’ll receive Max Verstappen’s special edition Miami Grand Prix race helmet.

Complete the look when the helmet is delivered to your in-game mail from July 3.

F1® Replays - New Event Type

Also arriving later in July is a brand new F1® World event type - F1® Replays.

Ever finished watching a grand prix and said to yourself: “What if…?”. This is your chance to rewrite history. In F1® Replays, you'll be able to take the place of any driver on the grid based on their race starting position, recreating the real-world race that just took place.

Showcase your driving ability and see if you can match or even improve on any of the driver’s performances with rewards to unlock based on how well you do. You’ll also be able to replay the event as many times as you want from any position on the track.

Keep an eye out for this new F1® World event type later in July with a new event appearing following a race weekend.

More to come in July

With some blockbuster races in the British, Hungarian, and Belgian Grands Prix coming in July, there’s plenty more to look forward to when it comes to F1® World challenges.
