Lead and Gold rustles up some patches on Steam

Fatshark has managed to circle the wagons and issue some repairs to its Western shooter, Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West. Not only has each individual class received tweaks -- which in turn affect the strength of the proximity-based Synergy system -- but a variety of features have been added to the game, including in-game voice chat and the ability to invite friends from the pause menu.

Lead designer Mårten Stormdal says the input of the community has been integral in shaping the game. "We've listened to the players' feedback and their input has been invaluable. We'll keep talking to them as we add dedicated servers and other improvements in the near future."

Lead and Gold: Gangs of the Wild West is currently available on Steam and PSN in Europe. It will launch on the North American PSN on May 4.
