Players might need to restart their game or back out to the main menu to deploy the patch, which doesn’t add any content. Instead, it focuses on bug fixes and various improvements.

The new League Play mode has had a lingering bug where the party leader backing out of the queue could cause the party to disband. That problem has been fixed in today’s update.

Another League Play bug that was squashed saw Create-a-Class incorrectly reverting to default multiplayer classes instead of CDL classes after a match. Other fixes for the UI were also addressed.

Zombies mode, and the new Firebase Z map, received numerous bug fixes, too. The patch fixed an issue with Tombstone Soda’s shadow form and a handful of exploits involving the Chopper Gunner and Aether Shroud Tier III.
