| Dev Blog #29 | 2026-04-03 | With the Brood Watcher fully implemented into the game, we now turn to working on the last remaining content patch of the 1.2 update. As you may have noticed, we are beginning to work on our larger updates in smaller patch increments. We were able to push out many new quality of life, content, and bugs fixes in these smaller patches and we feel it better suits our development style, pace, and the player's experience. We are now turning our focus to the last and final patch of Update 1.2, which includes the Ironhide Grazer, Stat Pearls, and an AI overhaul. Once released, we will then finish work on Update 1.3.
