The EGOSOFT Website now offers a new patch for X³: Terran Conflict to update the space combat sequel to version 3.1. The update includes a number of fixes and improvements, and adds a warning not to attempt to manually patch the Steam version of the game, which will automatically patch itself.

• Fixed case where the Balance of Power achievement may not unlock
• Some minor mission fixes
• Fixed some map issues (for new games only)
