Hinterland Studio Inc recently released an update for The Long Dark that added a ton of cool new content. The Frontier Comforts update was the third and final part of The Long Dark: Tales from the Far Territory DLC.
Although the DLC received a mixed reception from fans, many still liked it and had already sunk many hours. However, players have been critical of the DLC due to several lingering bugs and issues. So, the developer released a hotfix earlier today to fix some of these issues. The June 29 patch changes the game version to v2.19 and squashes multiple UI, gameplay, and environment related bugs. You can check out some of the details below.
