What the later July 30 update changed
| Official update area | Current editorial status | What not to assume |
|---|---|---|
| Tutorial prompts and controller navigation | The later official update reports multiple fixes. | Do not claim all controller or tutorial issues are resolved on every platform. |
| Reconnect and unresponsive input | The update reports targeted fixes. | Do not convert unrelated community disconnects or lag into the same confirmed defect. |
| Soul of Return consumption | The update reports a fix for the documented extra-consumption issue. | Do not infer every extraction failure has the same cause. |
| Class and skill behavior | The update includes targeted balance and bug changes. | Do not publish a permanent tier list from one patch or complaint thread. |
Controller and platform checks
The official launch FAQ confirms PS5 and Xbox controller support, while the launch Known Issues notice documents several controller-specific problems. Support for an input device does not mean every screen is currently issue-free. If your problem matches the leaderboard, Gear, Auction House or PS5 rows above, keep the report specific to that screen and platform.
Safe launch troubleshooting path
- Read the newest official Steam announcement and check whether your exact symptom is listed.
- Record platform, account region, server region, input device, exact error text and local time with time zone.
- Apply only a workaround named in the official notice. Do not download replacement DLLs or unofficial “fix” tools.
- On Steam, use the client’s built-in file verification if files appear damaged; keep anti-cheat and security protections enabled unless official support says otherwise.
- If the symptom is not listed, use in-game customer support or an official community route and include reproducible steps without sharing credentials or authentication codes.
What is not officially confirmed
| Current player question | Evidence label | What this guide can safely say |
|---|---|---|
| Are login queues a confirmed global outage? | Community Discussion | Players reported queues, but the checked official Known Issues notice does not declare a broad outage. |
| Is every launch stutter caused by shader compilation? | Speculation | The developer documented pre-launch performance work; community cause claims are not an official post-launch diagnosis. |
| Is there a universal black-screen or login-token fix? | Community Discussion | No checked first-party notice supplies one universal fix. Report the exact platform and error. |
Community Watch
- Confirmed: Bellring Games lists the 12 launch-version issues in the official notice linked above.
- Community Discussion: Fresh Steam threads report black screens, error 0xc000007b, crash loops, lag and input failures. These posts identify urgent troubleshooting demand; they do not confirm a shared cause or make community workarounds safe.
- Community Discussion: A July 30 Reddit queue thread contains mixed reports of queue movement and login delays. It is not a first-party outage notice.
- Speculation: A July 30 performance thread discusses possible causes and settings. This guide does not present those explanations as verified fixes.
Review rule: Community reports trigger source checks. They are promoted to Confirmed only when a dated first-party notice supports the same claim. Last community scan: July 31, 2026 at 08:50 JST.
