What’s Next?

Lot’s of new parts, new partners plus plenty of bug fixes and quality of life improvements.

As we head towards exiting our early access period we need to spend some fixing as many bugs as we can and improving as many rough edges as possible, with the holiday period fast approaching we will be using this quieter time to do just this.

… and yes, RTX GPUs are coming, don’t worry.
