Darktide Hotfix 1.12.5 Is Rolling Out With Crash and Cosmetic Fixes
The update fixes Zealot and Veteran crash cases, restores Steam Friend invitations, and cleans up several weapons and cosmetics.

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Hotfix 1.12.5 is now rolling out across all platforms. The focused patch addresses several crash cases, fixes an ability charge issue, restores Steam Friend invitations, and cleans up a collection of weapon and character cosmetic problems, according to the official Steam announcement.
Zealot players should no longer trigger a crash by disconnecting while using Fury of the Faithful. Veteran players also get a fix for a crash that could occur when hotjoining with the Leave No One Behind talent equipped. Another rare crash involving a Servo Skull reviving an ally has been addressed as well.
The hotfix also makes sure Chordclaw consumes charges when its ability is used. Steam Overlay invitations to a Strike Team are working again, and newly created characters can once more opt out of the campaign.
Several visual issues round out the patch, including clipping around hair and headgear, incorrect uniform colors, a broken ammo meter and reload on the Resplendent Fury Laspistol, and offset powered visual effects on the Pyre Blade. One Harsh Environment Flak Helmet name was also changed to avoid a duplicate entry.
