The latest update for Back to the Dawn, version 2.0.0.25, introduces a range of quality-of-life improvements and essential bug fixes. Players can now consume soda in batches, navigate improved UI prompts for the Supporter Pack DLC, and access reworked psychiatric evaluation features more easily. The update also enhances navigation within the Recreation Yard, making it simpler to use inspection doors and complete jump challenges during power outages.
Several issues have also been resolved, including bugs affecting the rooftop jailbreak sequence, lottery ticket bonuses, Mineworld’s infinite mode in segregation, and specific NPC behaviors on D19. These refinements aim to deliver a smoother and more immersive prison escape experience.
