- FixedFixed being unable to romance any of The Hex Protoframes if you are also romancing someone from The Devil’s Triad.

- ChangedLike with The Hex, if you want to date a Protoframe, you can confess your feelings to them either in a KIM conversation or by visiting them in La Cathédrale. The requirements to unlock this option (and have them reciprocate) vary per character.
- ChangedResetting Memories comes with a 28 Day cooldown that applies per Protoframe batch. (ex: if you reset The Roundtable, you will have to wait 28 days before wiping their memories again, but The Hex and The Devil’s Triad are unaffected.)
- ChangedImage Description: Screenshot of the Reset Your Memories option in the KIM Digital Grimoire window. On the left side are the options to select The Hex, The Roundtable, and The Devil’s Triad. On the right, with the Devil’s Triad is selected with the “Commit” button to reset your memories.
- ChangedIf you have expressed romantic interest in a Protoframe and have had it reciprocated, you can date them! Unlike The Hex, The Devil’s Triad will not move out of La Cathédrale upon dating, but you can still engage in some devilry with your beloved in a variety of ways:
- ChangedThe Hex were the first dateable characters added to the game, so introducing a new group of romanceable characters may give devoted Drifters some pause. We could get into the weeds with technicalities here — eternalism, etc. — but at the end of the day you can now successfully woo and smooch two individuals at the same time.
- ChangedFixed performance issues caused by The Hex Protoframes loading into Höllvania missions.
- FixedFixed Operator model clipping through floor during the chair spin jump scare cutscene in “Get to Entrati” stage of The Hex quest.
- FixedFixed being able to summon the Atomicycle in a corridor in Stage 3 of The Hex quest, causing players to get stuck out of the map.
