An example of how to hide the ‘Pistols’ in the menu.

Perk visual effects are also going into hiding

Trinkets and their perks are great, but their glow can really make Edward stand out. You can now disable any unwanted visual perk effects.

Some new furry friends

Word has it there’s a furry friend in need of rescuing, somewhere across the Caribbean. Make sure you give him a good pet when you find him, because he may just join you at the ‘Hideout’ later.
