The one which was announced for this week.
Probably later today, unless it’s delayed.
They always have to wait for Steam and Microsoft Stores to validate the update which might explain delays.
It’s just early morning for the dev team so if it’s today it will likely be 6+ hours from now.
Where did they announce an incoming patch?
I REALLY hope they fix the save game corruption issue.
It sucks beyond words to play the campaign on titan difficulty and be unable to rely on save games because a solid 60% of them are just corrupted.
And its not random - something happens during a mission, and from that point onward all saves are not usable.

I hope they update the AI so they can actually navigate water maps.

That’s not a promise though.
Maybe they don’t make it in time. Or Microsoft/Steam are delaying it.
Man that sucks 
I’ve been waiting for the patch before I stream the campaign. I hope it’s today…
If they need to delay it then so be it. The game probably should have been delayed in the first place. The multiplayer is bugged and there’s a ton of missing features in the game.
Patch is out (restart Steam). Dunno when the notes are due out.

The AI still sucks on water maps, won’t transport units until late in the game.
And on Vinlandsaga they will get stuck if the starting transport ship is destroyed. ie they won’t build a dock.
I can’t believe they nerfed the age-up speed for heroic and mythic age. Egyptians and Atlanteans basically depend on the heroic age when they start to fall behind.
They should increase it even more. Fast heroic and even Fast Mythic strategies were too abusable.
Players were just going fast heroic and comboing god powers to instantly win.
Freyrs gift is just 10% more HP now?
Thats very lame.
Like why #### # ##### civilisation bonus around the technology getting cheaper if it just gives you 10%???
11, centaur strategies are terrorizing multiplayer right now, and you think they should make it harder to advance?! Greeks and Norse (not including Freyr) don’t need to advance because they can keep using all-in strategies. Egyptians and Atlanteans depend on advancing to counter certain units (well, Set might be an exception). Also, if advancing takes longer than it already does now, we’ll rarely ever see games reach mythic or even heroic age. There’s three other ages for a reason.
It gives now 10% more to myth units, ships, villagers, siege units. It was nerf regardless, but it was necessary.
I can confidently say that Freyja/Vidar Freyr was best Norse god regarding ALL heroes and human units. Doesn’t matter if you’re Odin specializing in Great Hall and going Njord, Freyr just had better Jarls. Same applied to Hersirs, Berserks, Hirdmen, Raiding Cav, Godis, Huskarls and Throwing Axemen as soon as Vidar tech and Freyrs gift kicked in giving them +35% hitpoints (25% for heroes but hersir tech existed too).
Now in 1vs1 Freyr wasn’t that busted because game didn’t often even go to late heroic, but in teamgames Freyr was absolutely busted with best units and best eco.

Freyrs Gift is now just a buffed version (10% vs. 5%) of what Dionysus gives with the Bacchanalia tech that was renamed Dionysia in Retold.
The following are stats I got with Freyr before the tech change with them at their strongest.
I am not surprised with the tech change because of how much more health all your human and hero units could get.
Wouldn’t it have been better to change Vidar?
Now Freyr has a whole civilisation mechanic around a technology that just gives 10% more HP.
