Following the release of Rogue Protocol on Monday, FBC: Firebreak's second major content update, Remedy has deployed a hotfix to address some of the bugs that arose following the rollout. The patch targets the new Endless Shift roguelite game mode and provides fixes to tutorials, UI, and gameplay, including outfit and weapon fixes.
It also fixed an issue "where late-joining players could not choose a new weapon if they joined during the preparation phase for wave 9 or 17," which felt less like a bug and more like the realities of being wildly unprepared for the day. Though probably best gameplay-wise to fix it.
Check out the full changes below:
PlayStation 5: 1.008.002
Xbox Series X|S: 1.8.2.0
PC: 1.8.2
Windows PC: 1.8.2.0
