  • The Recall - Self Nano Power has been renamed "Recall".

    • Megas' Sleep - Cone has been swapped with Courage’s Drain - Point.
    • Wilt's Snare - Cone has been swapped with Dee Dee’s Damage - Area.
• 03.02.2025 (v.020325 patch):
  • A glitch with the Dash Nano Power that caused players to not set off from Jump Pads when dashing onto until the Avatar got off them was fixed.
  • A strange power interaction that happened with the Rocket Nano Power, where the jump boost from either Jump - Group or Jump Nano Powers awarded from Coco's Eggs would increase Rocket's height, was fixed.
  • A typo in the description for the Panini Nano's Stun - Area Nano Power was fixed.
  • A glitch that caused the Dash Nano Power to show Recall - Group's reticle still if the Avatar had a Nano with said Nano Power out while in a group was fixed.
  • An error that caused the Prof. Utonium Nano's Sleep - Cone Nano Power to display the icon for the Sleep - Area Nano Power in the Nano Book and on the Nano Power selection menu was patched.
• 03.03.2025 (v.030325 patch): The Prof. Utonium Nano's "Prof. Protection" Nano Power is displayed as Sleep - Area, like intended.
• 10.26.2025 (v.261025 patch):
  • As a part of a previous update, description changes to the Recall - Self Nanos were accidentally pushed, describing a rework that did not make it to the live game. As such, the descriptions for those Nano Powers were reverted back to their original ones from FusionFall Retro until further notice.
  • The animation that plays when using Dash now changes based on the weapon type the Avatar is holding. This includes a new animation for Dashing with Rockets while in the air, Dashing with Pistols while on the ground and Dashing with Rifles while on the ground and air.
  • An issue where alt-tabbing while Dashing would send the Avatar further in the air/further ahead was patched.
  • An interaction with emotes and Dashing that would cause the Avatar to contort in unintended ways was patched.
