The First Descendant just got a quick fix with Hotfix 1.3.1b, targeting an annoying issue where some players found their Battle Pass Weekly Challenges stuck and not updating. If you’ve been scratching your head, wondering why your challenges stayed the same, this patch is the answer.
Patched without downtime, this update landed on August 14, 2025, at 4:30 AM PDT for Steam, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5. Players are asked to update their game and reconnect to resume smooth gameplay. It’s a minor fix, but one that helps keep the grind feeling fair and fresh.
One has to wonder why this slipped through in the first place. Was it a backend hiccup or a coding oversight? Whatever it was, it’s good to see it addressed so quickly. Battle Pass challenges are a big part of keeping players engaged, and nothing kills momentum like a bug that freezes progress.
Has this glitch hit you? Let us know if the fix works for you or if there’s still some weirdness going on. And hey, if you spot anything else weird in the game, don’t hesitate to share it in the comments below.
