• We’ve been on a bug-busting mission. First things first, let’s talk about that pesky bug in GG 60.0/60.1. Some of you experienced an issue where your audio devices would switch every time your PC went to sleep or restarted. We heard your feedback loud and clear. We’re really sorry for the inconvenience and the potential mix-up during your gaming sessions. We’ve been working hard to squash these bugs.
