The First Descendant adds game-changing hotfix feature

Jul 09, 2024 10:25 AM

The First Descendant, a free-to-play co-op looter shooter by Nexon, is set to receive a highly anticipated feature in its upcoming hotfix—matchmaking for Hard Mode in Infiltration Operations. Previously, players were compelled to tackle these challenging dungeons solo, significantly hampering their progress. Infiltration Operations offer better loot on Hard Mode, making this update a game-changer by improving player engagement and satisfaction. This hotfix comes in response to player feedback, showing the developer's dedication to community input. Despite this positive change, Nexon still faces criticism for aggressive monetization practices and the striking similarities to Bungie's Destiny.

The upcoming hotfix for The First Descendant will add matchmaking for Hard Mode in Infiltration Operations.

The First Descendant has been making waves as a popular looter shooter with a peak Steam concurrent player count of 264,860. Despite its issues with monetization and comparisons to Destiny, the game has managed to capture a significant player base. The addition of matchmaking for Hard Mode dungeons is expected to enhance the gaming experience by making high-level content more accessible and enjoyable for players.
