Root Patch Notes — October 23, 2025
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
We've released a hotfix addressing various bugs following the release of Hirelings & Landmarks. A huge thanks to the players who have reported these issues so we can continue to make Root Digital the best it can be!
Bug Fixes
Fixed a number of compatibility issues when moving from the pre-Hirelings version and the post-Hirelings version, particularly around saving and resuming in-progress matches.
