The First Descendant developer NEXON has announced plans to release a brand new update for PlayStation, Xbox and PC. The First Descendant update 1.1.3 has a September 26 release date and a 2pm BST UK launch time. There's currently no word on any server downtime, so fingers crossed the update can be downloaded and installed without any interruption. As a relatively new game, The First Descendant is still receiving lots of new content and pretty significant gameplay tweaks as part of every new update. The same is true with update 1.1.3, which introduces new features and makes changes to various character skills.

As you can see from the patch notes below, skills for Freyna, Kyle, and Esiemo will all be improved as part of the update.

Likewise, NEXON plans to add two new modules that enhance shield usability, while also introducing a brand new Cinematic Replay feature.

That's on top of adjustments to some of the traps in Infiltration Operations, plus the ability for character to individually set spawn effects.

Perhaps most exciting of all, however, is the addition of a new web event, not to mention NEXON's plans to renew Ultimate Bundles with new cosmetics.

You can see the First Descendant update 1.1.3 patch notes below.
