What is The First Descendant Premium Currency Caliber Bug?

The First Descendant launch has been pretty smooth. The game doesn’t have many issues for most players outside of one highly pressing matter that is affecting a lot of people: the Caliber Bug. Here’s what happened with the caliber bug in The First Descendant.

What to Do if You Didnā€™t Get Your Caliber in The First Descendant

Caliber is the premium currency in The First Descendant and can be used to buy cosmetic items, but right now people who are buying it in-game are not receiving it and are unable to purchase those sweet skins they’re after. The cosmetics for Bunny are particularly tempting, though some can be pretty expensive if you opt to buy them outright in the shop.

The developers have acknowledged the bug with a message in the official Discord, where they wrote: “Greetings Descendants, We have identified an issue where there is a delay in the delivery of Caliber upon payment and Twitch Drops reward.”

According to the developers, they are working to resolve this as quickly as they can and will implement a fix as soon as possible. Because of the language they use, calling it a delay, it would seem that anyone who has already purchased Caliber will get it delivered just as soon as the fix is put in place, so it would appear you won’t need to worry about trying to get the transaction refunded.

It also goes without saying that the developers will want to solve this one as quickly as possible, as a bug in the main system by which you make money will be a top priority.

Edit: As of 3:00 PM EST, the Caliber bug has been fixed. If you’ve been effected by this bug, you’ll now be able to find your Caliber in your inbox. This is separate from the Albion inbox and can instead be accessed through your main menu. All Caliber purchases will appear and have to be claimed here.

The First Descendant is available now.
