The developers of Party Animals have released Version 1.13.2.0 (October 17, 2025), introducing a new round of fixes and optimizations aimed at improving stability and gameplay balance, particularly within the Autumn Cabin map. This update addresses multiple visual glitches, object behavior issues, and outfit effect inconsistencies while also enhancing chat visibility and fishing balance. The update follows September’s Version 1.13.1.0, which brought back seasonal content and new quality-of-life improvements, continuing the studio’s ongoing commitment to refining player experience.
The highlight of this hotfix includes numerous Autumn Cabin fixes—ranging from missing visual effects and misplaced models to improper lighting in indoor scenes. Additionally, localization for Thai text has been optimized for better readability, while gameplay tweaks restore previously unavailable functions, such as switching throwable types during spectator mode. The update also continues to improve stability in online matches, building upon the fixes introduced in earlier 1.13 patches.
