Surviving Mars has today launched update 1.29 across all platforms, so here’s the full list of changes and fixes in today’s patch! As you may have already guessed from the version number being a little random, today’s patch isn’t anything super interesting or flashy. Instead, the team at Paradox is looking to provide some solid fixes to the game. There have also been some nice localization improvements alongside potential improvements to the in-game bug reporting tool. There’s plenty more to talk about though, so without further adieu, here’s everything new with Surviving Mars update 1.29!
