Update 1.14 has arrived for Outriders and here’s the full list of changes and fixes added with the patch. Last month, there were a ton of fixes to every Outriders class out there, but unfortunately, there were still some problems that needed to ironed out. Specifically, the Devastator class has had some imbalance issues as well as control issues as well. This update will tweak those controls as well as the Devastator’s impale skill. The patch is pretty significant considering the servers have been taken offline today to implement them, so some significant changes are expected. Here’s everything new with Outriders Update 1.14.

Outriders Update 1.14 Patch Notes

  game to stutter when engaging Crawlers in battle during Expeditions

  matchmaking privacy setting to default to “Open”

Outriders has been a pleasant surprise this year and combines third-person shooter action with some special, elemental attacks to create a dizzying blend of bombastic gameplay that just doesn’t get old. The developer’s constant updates help keep everything running smoothly too, so expect Outriders to be back and up and running sooner than later so we can jump back into the action.

Outriders is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. For more information on the patch, visit the official Outriders site.
