With the update to version 0.8.4, we are releasing a few new features in addition to some bug fixes.
In addition to a new offensive level and two Christmas stories, there are also new settings for a new game. We have split Hard Mode into smaller modes, added a few new modifications and made balancing changes.
It is now possible to select only some of the Hard Mode options. If you select all Hard Mode sub-options, the game will be slightly more difficult than before.
Game saves from version 0.8.3 should be compatible with the new update, but the new stories can only occur in a new game. If you still encounter errors, you can switch back to version 0.8.3 at any time via the Steam beta.
And here are the full patch notes for 0.8.4:

1915, World War I, Western Front. As a German Unteroffizier, you are responsible for a group of soldiers. Whether they will survive the war is in your hands. Welcome to the trenches, Herr Unteroffizier!
The time in the camp is marked by heavy labor with an insecure supply situation. Is there enough time for the men to rest? Can they process the horrors they have experienced and mourn the fallen?
Your decisions between the needs of the soldiers and the demands of the superiors result in a unique story each time. But your choices don't change the war. They change the life of your soldiers.
The chaos of war threatens the physical and mental well-being of the soldiers. Again and again you have to make decisions in an attempt to face the fatal coincidences of the battlefield.
