Redfall’s final update, which was announced following Microsoft’s closure of developer Arkane Austin, is here, adding a myriad of quality-of-life overhauls to the game, such as an offline mode, DLSS3, and single-player pausing.
The details of Redfall Game Update 4 were unveiled in a Bethesda blog post today, including a ranking system called Community Standing, which is among the new features in the game’s Neighborhood system. Community Standing, as the blog post describes, is a rank-based reputation that rewards players with unique permanent buffs upon completing a Safehouse mission, rescuing civilians, and defeating an Underboss.
Redfall famously experienced a disastrous launch, which saw players voice their frustrations with the vampiric looter shooter’s underwhelming co-op missions, banal story, and buggy gameplay. Redfall’s negative reception from critics and players alike ultimately resulted in Xbox boss Phil Spencer taking full responsibility for the game’s failure to meet players’ expectations.
Despite the ups and downs, Arkane Austin delivered a grateful message to its fans in the blog post today.
“We’re thankful for the millions of players who have joined us,” Arkane Austin wrote. “From everyone at Arkane Austin, thank you for playing our games and loving our worlds, it’s been an honor to deliver these experiences to you.”
