Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Hotfix 1.13.1 is being rolled out across all platforms. On Damnation and higher, the Prophet of Decay’s second phase will have at least 3 tooth pillars instead of 2, and adjusted health thresholds will let players deal more melee damage while the boss is exhausted in its first and final phases. Fatshark also listed two bug fixes and two known penance issues in its Steam patch notes. The September 29 release also introduced the three-mission Terrors of the Deep campaign and six weapon variants.

The Prophet of Decay and Spillway arrived with the September 29 Depths of the Damned update. This hotfix makes a small set of targeted changes to that boss encounter, alongside fixes for crafting-material rewards after Mortis Trials and a crash when entering the Meat Grinder.
