The progress of the United States Challenge got RESETED after today's patch [11th of May 2021]

I bought the USA DLC in the first day of release, but when I saw the Profile Avatars that were awarded after each certain number of missions, I went to complete them. But now… after the latest patch, look what happened.

I have a similar issue. The only difference with the first post is that I did not buy the USA DLC yet.

I wanted to start Challenge 48/50 of the United States Challenge today (and finish the challenge), but all my progress was lost and I have to start again at challenge 1. The new patch (Update 26865, May 11th 2021) was also just installed before I opened the game. The already earned Profile avatars featuring US remained as well.

Two more users expirencing this issue, both of us did the update then loaded AOE 3 DE and after selecting a profile picture the campaigns are showing as blank. Neither of us checked before selecting the picture however so unsure if this is linked.

same here lost all of the progress for the USA event updated the game on Xbox game pass before starting the game. when I got on the game all my progress was gone

I have the same problem, lost all my progress as well in the USA challenage, but I am using the Microsoft Store/xbox version not the steam version… They posted that there is a known issue affecting Steam user but clearly its not just steam users…

I had America unlocked, But it is gone now

I have literally the same issue i was 49/50

I have the Microsoft Store version and have not seen any posts about it being affected but I also have lost all my progress. I hope it is fixed soon. Not looking forward to beginning it again. Was at the last 10 states.

Same issue here on the Xbox App.

So you are telling me they reverted the patch and the progress is still gone?

They should just guve everyone the USA dlc at this point

all the progress lost, in my case is in the microsoft /xbox store in pc
