The Anthem 1.10 update patch notes (1.1.0) are now available to read, with the new Anthem update being rolled out across PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The patch does require a downtime period that is scheduled to last five hours. Here’s when the game will be down and unplayable: 12 – 5 PM UTC/7 AM – 12 PM CT. Key features of the new Anthem patch today include the new Sunken Cell Stronghold, the ability to select Contracts from the start of the expedition screen, the ability to launch a new mission from the end of the expedition screen, access to the Forge during Missions, and more.
Anthem 1.10 Update Patch Notes Highlights (1.1.0)
The biggest highlight of the Anthem 1.10 update patch notes (1.1.0) is the new Sunken Cell Stronghold, which is now available to all players who have completed the main story. This is a brand new dungeon that should provide players with a fresh set of challenges and loot to grind for. New loot like the Extended Sniper Magazine, Rapid Hollow Points, and Extended Special Arms Magazine Masterwork components are some of the new gear that is now available.
In addition to this free bit of content, players will also be happy to hear that the whole Anthem experience has been made much more seamless. Players can now select Contracts from the start of the expedition screen, instead of having to travel back to Fort Tarsis to select missions from the contract boards. What’s more, new missions can be selected at the end of the expedition screen, with no need to return to Fort Tarsis or the Launch Bay. These two changes should lessen the downtime between playing missions with friends.
Also deserving of being highlighted is the ability to access the Forge during Missions, Strongholds, and also Freeplay. This means that players can now change gear without having to return to Fort Tarsis or the Launch Bay!
