RELEASE NOTES Sim Update 7 Beta - 1.9.16.0
If you are playing on PC, outdated packages in your community folder may have an unexpected impact on the title’s performance and behavior.
If you suffer from stability issues or long loading times, move your community package(s) to another folder before relaunching the title.
NOTE: Due to a build packaging issue with the 1.9.16.0 PS5 build, this flighting update will only be available to beta participants on Xbox, Windows PC, and Steam. We will plan to update PS5 next week.
