The latest news for the game comes from its most recent update, which targets and largely nullifies a widely reported bug that wipes players' inventories. A soft fix for the issue was allegedly implemented on Monday, withSquare Enixclaiming in a Reddit post that today’s patch provides an “extra safeguard” for the issue.

The fix has come to PC, PlayStation, andXbox, with Square telling users that it’s fairly sure the new patch should eradicate the problem. Those still struggling with the bug are advised to contact support to receive additional advice, with the company specifically advising those with wiped accolades to come forward, as that’s still a problem it’s actively working to resolve.
As for those wondering whether they’ll have their wiped inventory returned to them, it seems Square has both good and bad news. On the positive side, the team can restoreOutriderslegendary loot, meaning players' best items should be returned to them safe and sound. However, the team won’t be restoring anything below legendary status, meaning all the other loot accumulated is gone for good.
The team claims that everyone’s restored loot will return on a specific day, although there’s no official date just yet. It will happen prior to the full launch ofOutridersthough,which will be hitting shelves on April 1. Alongside the restoration, it seems several other fixes will be implemented prior to launch, including adjusting touchpad sensitivity, adding further optimizations to multiplayer connections, and patching some underlying issues still hindering players.
Outside of the update, the gamedefinitely seems to have piqued players' interest, especially with the announcement thatOutridersis coming to Xbox Game Pass on console. The demo will lead into the full experience in just over a week’s time, with those who get stuck into the preview now being able to carry across their progress when transferring over into the main game. However, those intending to get a headstart should be warned that there’s no crossplay just yet, meaning all progress earned in the demo can only be accessed if they remain on the same console.
Outriderswill launch on April 1 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
