These new levels will enable a new item, two relics, and a new ultimate magic spell for the game's four allegiances.<br /><br />The update will also include a multiplayer stats screen and a number of bug fixes. Audio issues are the biggest priority there, but problems with matchmaking and certain weapon unlocks are also due to be fixed in this update. There's no official release date for the patch yet, but Napoli says it's on the way.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/04/05/god-of-war-ascension-update-increases-level-cap-fixes-audio-gl/">God of War: Ascension update increases level cap, fixes audio glitches</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Fri, 05 Apr 2013 04:00:00 EST.

Xbox Support said the team would investigate the issue and release a fix soon. It appears that issue has been remedied.<br /><br />The <a href="http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-live-status">Xbox Live Status page</a> has been updated, removing a mention of the issue and Microsoft has told Joystiq that, while there was a little issue, it has now been completely fixed. Still having issues? Let us know in the comments below.<br /><br />[Thanks, Anthony!]<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/11/28/psa-microsoft-says-freezing-issues-associated-with-latest-dash/">PSA: Microsoft says freezing issues associated with latest dash update have been fixed</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Wed, 28 Nov 2012 22:00:00 EST.

Single-player leaderboards, player-created track leaderboards, and multiplayer ranks won't be affected by this change.<br /><br />RedLynx recommends that players stay out of multiplayer for four to six hours after the update, in order to make sure that any scores earned are recorded correctly. What else can you do between the hours of two and eight AM? Sleeping is one option. Just throwing that out there.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/05/29/trials-evolution-getting-bugfix-update-resetting-multiplayer-le/">Trials Evolution getting bugfix update, resetting multiplayer leaderboards</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Tue, 29 May 2012 22:00:00 EST.
