DEADSIDE Console 1.5 - Barriers, QoL, Rebalancing

Update 1.5 will be released on PS5 and Xbox Series X on May 21st, at 11AM CEST / 4AM CDT!

Version 1.5 introduces a handful of new features, along with some important rebalancing done according to community feedback. Of course, version 1.5 also brings some console specific bug fixes thanks to your bug reports.

As for new features, you can expect to see a remodeled Scorp, two new place-able barriers for your base, and the ability to raid with blowtorches. Medical items like painkillers, MedX, and tinctures have been buffed, along with increased storage shelf max HP.
