Patch for the update 1.26 is now live on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S

Patch for the 1.26 version of Way of the Hunter is now live on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. This patch brings a number of tweaks to the Northern Lynx, as well as to the ballistic model of buckshot and slugs, plus a handful of fixes and improvements.

(PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S) Version 1.26 (Build: 129081) patch notes:

Tweaked:

Visual improvements to Northern Lynx
Improved internal ballistics and pellet spread for buckshots to make them more effective against big game animals
Improved internal ballistics of slugs to increase their cavity damage
Adjusted the damage threshold for heart and lungs in small game animals to make buckshot more effective against them
(PC, Lintukoto Reserve) Improved framerate on High and Ultra visual settings

Fixed:

(Lintukoto Reserve) 5* Reindeer trophies clipping through ceiling on some mounts
(Lintukoto Reserve) Overlapping trees near Janika’s cabin
Player character’s arm animation misbehaving when entering photo mode while using a bow
Eurasian wolverine’s ragdoll having deformed back legs
Remington 700 CDL having the magazine capacity of 3 instead of 4
(PC) Wind not affecting external ballistics
Incorrect shop information for the .30-30 and .223 ammo
(Lintukoto reserve) Sharp cuts in some of the swamp water pools
Rare instances of purchased ammo disappearing after reloading the save
Minor localization issues

Known issues:

The issue of wind not affecting external ballistics is still present on the console versions of the game. We are hoping to address this very soon.
