The 2.4.2 patch for Once Human goes live today at 05:00 PT, and it's focused on cleaning up some frustrating bugs that have been hitting players where it counts.

The big one here is a fix for Deviations disappearing during Securement Pod dismantling or scenario transfers. That's a data loss bug, and the studio's rolling out compensation within three business days, check your mailbox once that lands. Beyond that, you've got fixes for the Spectral Scale skin displaying wrong, Keyword DMG vanishing in rare cases, and a couple of Deviation battle skill issues where Mini Wonder was triggering weapon Keywords it shouldn't and Brave George was absorbing damage from allied factions.

There's also a fix for the Grow Light's illumination direction being off. Nothing earth-shattering individually, but these are the kinds of polish passes that keep the survival loop running smoothly. The studio's clearly listening to feedback and pushing fixes regularly.

Here's what changed in today's update.
