Für The Long Dark (ab 39,90€ bei kaufen) steht das Sandbox-Update "Resolute Outfitter" (v386) zur Verfügung. Es soll das größte Update des Jahres sein. Mit "Resolute Outfitter" kommt nicht nur die neue Region "Forlorn Muskeg" ins Spiel, auch das erweiterte Kleidungssystem, das einen zentralen Einfluss auf die Kernmechanik haben soll, wird integriert. Es soll über 65 Kleidungsstücke mit individuellen Eigenschaften und Werten geben. Fortan wird man mehrere Schichten von Kleidungsgegenständen tragen kann. Eine ausführliche Beschreibung dieses Systems und der weiteren Neuerungen findet ihr hier . Was sich am Story-Modus getan hat, legen die Entwickler (inkl. kurzer Videoschnipsel) in diesem Blog-Beitrag dar.
