Far Far West quickly became one of April 2026’s indie sensations, drawing a considerable number of players to its western-themed bounty hunts every day since entering early access. This article gathers all the details on the co-op shooter’s patches, along with what we know about its 2026 update roadmap.
Below, you’ll find the full patch notes for the latest Far Far West update as well as a list of its previous patches’ dates, so you can get a sense of how the co-op shooter has evolved throughout its stay in Steam Early Access.
Far Far West Latest Patch Notes - 0.1.1.17 Hotfix
Far Far West’s patch 0.1.1.17 hotfix went live on June 18, 2026, tackling more bugs, further optimizing the game, and more.
View the minor patch notes below:
QUALITY OF LIFE
- Joker dropping is now disabled while using a mount (this used to cause a lot of issues when updating players’ statistics, which is something we cannot fix. Our best solution to prevent this from happening is removing the ability entirely, which should not impact many situations)
- Reworked the on-hit damage indicator: it is now reliable and correctly shows the direction the damage is coming from
- XP Tickets can now be used with a gamepad
- Animals now have proper shadows
- GPU Optimization (especially noticeable on Woodlands map!)
BUGFIXES
Very minor bugfixes and tweaks are not listed
Fixed +20 bugs, including:
- The Vulture’s shield no longer stays forever after you have destroyed all the flying skulls
- Localized lines introduced in the previous patch that weren’t localized
- Fixed Japanese, Russian, and Chinese localization texts that were overlapping and/or going offscreen
- Fixed an ADS glitch that happened when aiming during an emote and canceling it by moving
- The cursor no longer randomly disappears in menus when using a gamepad
- Fixed Bestiary buttons that would not work with a gamepad
- Fixed damage numbers that would not appear when killing enemies with bow explosions
- Fixed an empty “Hero” slot that could appear in the leaderboard when playing with the Boomerang
- Fixed a soft-lock where emptying the Revolver’s ammo reserve under Fanning Ace kept you stuck in a reload state while permanently stacking the Joker Run And Reload effect
- A client dying while mounted no longer accidentally triggers the host’s Second Wind
- Joker Relentless: removed from weapons and now works properly on the hero (it should have been on the hero only this whole time)
- Joker Chad: now properly shows the Wandering Trader on the map
- Joker Run and Gun: now properly uses diminishing returns
- Joker Rampage: no longer available on the Sheriff Stars (doesn’t work anymore with the rework)
- Joker Hit Me: now properly applies while mounted
- Joker Speedster: aiming or being in water no longer incorrectly reduces its damage
