Hey Everyone, We know there’s been a lot of confusion today, and we wanted to clear it up. With Hotfix #53 (1.5.11) yesterday, we rolled out some changes to certain regions (Japan, Germany and Austria) in order to be in line with what is required for the various rating boards across platforms and we didn’t communicate that to players properly. That’s on us. Now that we are on more platforms, we need to ensure we’re compliant across all of them. In the process of doing this we put too many in place by mistake. In the process of rolling out these restrictions, Germany and Austria were incorrectly given more restrictions than what is required by these regulatory rating boards. This is going to be addressed in Hotfix #54 coming out on December 5th. From the hotfix on December 5th, Germany and Austria will have their gameplay restored to what it was previously. However, post-death ragdoll interactions will remain disabled to comply with restrictions from USK age ratings. (On-death ragdoll animations will be present.) For Japan, the restrictions will remain on PS5. The other platforms will go back to as they were before. Thank you to everyone who left comments and shared their concerns. Also thank you for the patience while we got it all sorted. – The Darktide Team 125 posts - 55 participants
