With this update I have added a number of routes for Rhode in The Clash section of the game. This area is accessible after The Mossbacks if you take a more negative route. If you need help reaching this location please contact me via the Discord ticketing system detailed under Bug Reporting.

Known Issues



• Russian language has not been updated past Fern/Rhode in Animus.
• English is the only language past the Mossbacks.
• Facial expressions in Emelios Clash scene are missing.
• Some audio queues in Emelios Clash scene are missing.
• Facial expressions in Rhodes Clash scene are missing.
• Some audio queues in Rhodes Clash scene are missing.

New Content



• New routes have been added for every possible interaction path with Rhode during The Clash. This section is exceptionally complex due to your choice to skip her entirely, fight her in the dark world, fall out of the dark world on Emelio, or go to lunch with fern instead. As such this took quite a bit longer to write so apologies for that!
