Version 1.8 Now Available — Noir Syndrome News

As I had mentioned in the preview, this patch is a big roundup of fixes and smoothing out some parts of the game. Hit Contracts will help ease the pain of hitmen and can be purchased in the Slums. There are also a number of new merchants and a wide array of bug fixes.

It may be the last major update for a while, but I'll post an announcement on that later. For now, take a look at the full patch notes below!
