Will Patches for the New Boss Katanas Work on Older Models?

I bought a Boss Katana Artist last year, and I love it. After NAMM 2020, I'm hearing about another one coming out that is new and improved. I'm now concerned that patches for the new model will not be backward compatible.

As time goes on, will anyone be making patches for the "older" model? Did I buy an already obsolete amp?  Am I worrying over nothing?

The FxFloorBoard editor for the original MK1 fifmware 4 will load and convert the MK2 patches.

Hi
Still learning about FXFloorboard
When I load mk2 patches and try to get them to play on my mk1 Katana they are all just blank clean tones?
Any advice?

Can you provide a link to which patches you are trying?
then I will have a look at them and check what is happening.
