Evil West 1.05 Update Patch Notes
Cosmetics
- Added a new stylish coat, hat and scarf called the Invincible set. It’s rewarded for the players who complete the entire game in True Death mode. Please note that in order to get the Invincible set, you need to complete a True Death playthrough after updating the game.
Features
- While sporting the Invincible set of clothes, the player regains a small amount of HP with every Gauntlet damage dealt to the enemies. This feature works even with only one piece of clothing equipped but scales up with the remaining ones.
Blockers
- Fixed a potential loss of entire game progress related to the True Death mode being accidentally turned on at the start of the NewGame+.
- Fixed the infinite loading screen (a.k.a. infinite fade-from-black) glitch.
- Fixed a possible Glamour-related softlock while reloading the miniboss checkpoint in the Smoke & Mirrors mission.
- Fixed the progression softlock if the player died and moved to the previous arena after respawn in The First Spark mission.
