| 12/19/23 Rapid Patch Details | 2023-12-19 | Hey folks! We have just released a patch containing three, very specific fixes. First, players should no longer run into broken/blank cards while playing Endo Warehouse in a language other than English. Second, for our PC players, we’ve added a short term fix to resolve an issue where PC players are getting stuck on the EULA because controller inputs are not working.

For those not able to get past the EULA, when you launch the game you will be able |

If you’re stuck on the game’s EULA, chances are you’ve run into one of these issues. We are actively working on a patch for the game to more proactively support some older VR headsets, as well as the Quest through Steam Link. In the meantime, you are absolutely able to set key bindings yourself via your SteamVR settings, and through the Steam Link app for Quest in |
