Обновление исправляет проблемы раннего доступа, улучшает поведение NPC и вносит заметные изменения в баланс противостояния Майкла Майерса и гражданских. Одним из главных исправлений стала кроссплатформенная игра. Теперь участники одной группы должны корректно переходить вместе с лидером в лобби, сформированное системой подбора, вместо возвращения в главное меню или исключения из группы. Разработчики также переработали маршрутизацию NPC. Полицейские теперь реже застревают в объектах окружения, а жители должны лучше находить путь к зонам эвакуации. Кроме того, исправлены отдельные проблемы с заданиями и достижениями, из-за которых игроки могли не получать положенные награды. Отдельное внимание IllFonic уделила выносливости.
