MindsEye Update 7 Refines Campaign Flow, Adds New Deluxe Content

MindsEye Update 7 brings campaign navigation fixes, combat balance updates, and PC control tweaks alongside the addition of the Silva E-Series street race for Deluxe Edition owners. The patch also removes the Free Starter Pack.

MindsEye Update 7 arrives across all platforms, bringing brand refinements, general polish, and campaign adjustments guided by community feedback. Alongside these fixes, Deluxe Edition owners gain access to the Silva E-Series, a new city-center street circuit in Redrock featuring grandstands and global leaderboards.

Mission Flow and Fairness Adjustments

Several campaign missions receive navigation and fairness updates. Guidance blips now have an increased visibility distance ranging from 100m to 1000m, and extra guidance blips are added to multiple missions. In Robin Hood, the sandstorm clears earlier on the highway, and a scannable marker helps locate the trailer park caravan. Data transfer progression following Claudia in The Mole is improved, and Big Rocket, Little Boy adds objective markers for the Install ODT and viewpoint locations on the rocket loader. Clash of the Egos adds extra cover points during the Silva segment, while Morrison's health is increased in Oh Lily! and A Vital Extraction. The Wrong Move removes an unfair fail condition triggered by briefly facing the opposite direction during the opening of the digging mini-game, and Man Always Burns increases its fail condition trigger volume.

PC Controls and UI Improvements

PC users receive a specific control mapping change for Companion Drone Controls, remapping drone descent from left Shift to left CTRL. Tooltips are added in A New Companion for basic drone controls and in Penthouse Gamble for unholstering an active companion drone. Solitary Confinement improves social cues and reinforcement during its mini-game. Additionally, the Settings menu no longer experiences unresponsiveness when selecting Reset Defaults.

AI, Visuals, and Audio Polish

Combat encounters feature various AI and visual fixes. Enemies in The Pursuit of the Orb no longer appear idle upon loading, and an issue where an enemy type failed to engage in Ultra Terminal – Goin' Haywire is resolved. Cover behavior is adjusted so enemies aim and react correctly. Default motion blur is reduced, locational animations and weapon-holding postures are refined, and flesh impact and blood effects are improved. Cinematic ambience, missing music, and cutscene audio dropping when skipping are also addressed.

Content Removal

The Free Starter Pack is removed from availability on February 4, 2026, and will no longer be playable after that date, even for users who have already downloaded it.

Why this patch matters

Update 7 targets specific friction points in the campaign, making navigation clearer and softening harsh fail conditions while delivering minor performance and visual polishes.
