Changes
- The Crucifix will now have a visual change with each use instead of disappearing with it’s final use.

- Each player will now have a unique colour on the mini map and sanity monitor.
- The VR rendering path has been changed from deferred to forward rendering. This will give better VR performance as well as fixing several graphical issues.
- Changed the look of the sanity monitor to help players who are colour blind see the sanity values.

- Added a new Intermediate and Professional objective: Have a member of your team escape the Ghost during a hunt.
- Added a new Professional objective: Repel the Ghost with a smudge stick while it’s chasing someone.

- Added support for bHaptics tact suits and face covers.
- With the VR change to forward rendering MSAA can now be used with VR and will default to 4xMSAA if enabled in the graphics settings.
