AI and Gameplay
- If a resource's condition is below 50%, then the AI will store it with very high priority.
- New default resource limits: Meat: 30, Bones: 10, Raw Skins: 10. This prevents Hunting work areas from getting overused if it's not required.

- Various performance optimizations from the console version are now included, which make the game run better with high population counts.

Stability
- If the game now detects that the settings or profile are corrupted, it will reset them instead of crashing out.
- Making the game more tolerant to corrupted savegames.
- Fixed crash when clicking on enable/disable if a human was also selected.
- Preventing messages from focusing on destroyed entities

Patch 2.0 (08 August 2019)

What’s new in “SteamWorld Quest 2.0”?
- Completing the story now unlocks New Game Plus, allowing the game to be replayed from the beginning with most non-story progress retained (cards, items and more). You’ll need to unlock the characters again, but once you’ve done that you’ll have access to their respective cards from your previous playthrough.
- For those of you wanting to up the challenge, a new difficulty setting, “Legend Remix”, will keep you on your toes once you’ve beaten the game and crave more. It’s not only more difficult but throws in a fair amount of gameplay twists of its own. This is only available in New Game Plus.
- There’s also a new art gallery with lots of previously unseen concept art and illustrations and a jukebox for those wanting to chill out to the beautiful soundtrack (out now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes and more)!

Other game improvements include:
- Added support for HD Rumble on Nintendo Switch
- Increased stock on consumable items available in the merchant wagon.
- Reduced entry requirements for the “Midas Grand Prix” colosseum tournament.
- Balancing tweaks to numerous cards and items as well as smaller bug fixes.
- We hope you’ll enjoy the rest of the summer and have a great time with the new SteamWorld Quest content!
