On June 7, 2026, the TBH team deployed a hotfix for an issue where chests were not appearing. The same official notice also postponed the planned Relay Server Addition update and explained that the team was moving toward a dedicated server approach.
The hotfix was also a bridge to the June 8 market pause. The team repeated that only listing new items would be unavailable, while existing listings could still be canceled and previously listed items could still be bought.
Chest fixes and temporary delivery behavior
The official notice says the team fixed the missing-chest issue and added temporary logic to hold chest acquisition requests under server load, then grant them later in a stacked form. Players might not receive a chest immediately, then see several arrive together.
For players with many stacked chests in Steam Inventory, the notice recommends repeating Mailbox > Refresh > Claim Chest > Open Chest until the display catches up. It also advises refreshing before opening a newly received chest when many are stacked.
Relay Server delay reason
The development team said internal testing showed that adding Relay Servers alone would not handle the growing concurrent user count. The team prepared a dedicated server to reduce load on Steam's servers.
Read chest behavior, market status, and server timing together during this window. A chest display fix does not mean drop tables changed, but server-side delivery delays can change what players see in the moment.
Market pause schedule repeated in the hotfix
The same notice repeated the June 8 schedule for the temporary market pause: 12:00 AM PDT, 4:00 PM KST, and 8:00 AM BST. It again framed the limitation as a pause on listing new items, not a removal of every existing market action.
