Aliens: Fireteam Elite Update 1.40 Patch Notes:

Aliens Fireteam Elite PS5 Update Version 1.040

For those unaware, the original Alien film takes place on moon Acheron or otherwise known as LV-426. This means that 4/26 (April 26) is celebrated as Alien Day by fans.

As for what’s new in this patch, here’s what’s mentioned by Cold Iron:

• In-game currency cap has been raised from 50,000 credits to 100,000 which means players can safely hoard and collect even more credits than before.
• The studio states they know how frustrating it is to lose challenge cards when a mission fails or a host drops out. With this update, challenge card packs in SSGT Park’s shop are now free.
