Hi guys, we recently started posting our changelogs to vigorgame.com since from there they are also linked directly to the game and you can access them through your Xbox as well. But some of you were unhappy with the fact that we will no longer post them on the forum - so we will continue posting them here as well. So here is the one Changelog that was missing for Update 4.0 - currently available on Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
