Repost from Steam Forum:

- Changelog
We've just released our first big content update. It features new main and side missions, a new player ship class, a new companion, a new boss fight and many quality of life improvements, tweaks and bugfixes.
Note that we rely on temporary text-to-speech voices for the new missions until we've started a new recording session. These fallback dialogs can be turned off in the audio settings. Also, you can continue with your saves, but we encourage you to start a new game to enjoy all the changes we've made.
