Added two new Anomalies, Banner Revenant and Bugle Revenant, to the Normal and Hard difficulties in [A Bringer of Doom] during the crossover, replacing existing Anomaly spawns.
The Banner Revenant struggles to notice motionless targets, but is more sensitive to anything that moves. After being roused by the Bugle Revenant, it unleashes even more powerful attacks.
The Bugle Revenant can detect moving or noisy targets over a wide area. Once it spots a target, it sounds its horn, causing all nearby Anomalies to patrol toward that location.
Added two new Classics, Ghost Seal and Snake-Eyebrow Copper Fish, to the Beginner, Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulties in [A Bringer of Doom] during the crossover. After obtaining the Ghost Seal, all Revenants within a certain range will submit to you. You can also use it to summon Revenants into three formations or command them to attack other Anomalies.
Added a special Narrative Technique, Ghost March, to the Normal and Hard difficulties of [A Bringer of Doom] during the crossover. This exploration contains a large number of Revenants, greatly increases the appearance rate of the S-rarity Classic "Ghost Seal" and includes a hidden room waiting to be discovered.
Optimized Narrative Techniques:
- Adjusted Monologue Narrative so that on Normal difficulty, all Anomalies in this exploration are replaced by a single Anomaly, either a Clumsy Raider or a Nightcrawler. On Hard difficulty, all Anomalies are replaced by a single Anomaly, either a Nightcrawler or an Elite Nightcrawler.
- Adjusted Surging Narrative so that all Anomaly attributes are enhanced in this exploration. On Normal difficulty, one additional Locked Ornate Cabinet will always appear. On Hard difficulty, two additional Locked Ornate Cabinets will always appear.
Restricted some Narrative Techniques from appearing in certain difficulties.
Added the ability to wield all S-rarity Classics.
Added a highlight to the help signal when downed.
Optimized the interruption logic for Burning Resentment.
Added first-time guidance for unlocking new difficulties.
Added a Cancel button and key binding. While charging or aiming, press it to exit the current state immediately.
Added leniency when jumping off platform edges.
Optimized the logic for repeated jumps by adding a short input buffer for jump commands while in the jumping state.
Adjusted horizontal damping when the stick is released during a jump. Pulling the stick in the opposite direction of movement during a jump now also triggers horizontal damping.
Adjusted the speed stacking effect from stick input during jumps to improve airborne character control.
Added a detection system that temporarily bans players from entering the game after repeated negative behavior in matches.
Optimized the descriptive text for Condensed Narrative in Narrative Techniques.
Optimized the hand-holding feature. Players can now crouch while holding hands, and several visual details have been improved. In addition, priority pickup protection between players while holding hands has been removed.
Optimized the audio-related logic in Cryptic Notes mode to reduce instances of electronic noise in certain situations.
Added new Special Effect components, [Point Light] and [Point Shadow]. These components create lighting and shadow projection effects, with adjustable parameters such as intensity, radius, and color. You can find them under [Function - Effects].
Added more than 200 Official Recommendation combinations to the Resource Lobby, covering a wide range of scene styles. Visitors can download and apply them directly to their own maps.
Increased the maximum number of times a Survivor (Visitor) can receive event-triggered attribute changes to 999, allowing for more diverse gameplay designs.
Optimized the spectating feature so you can now exit spectating directly from the character selection interface without waiting to enter the match.
Adjusted the component library categories by adding a new [Function - Effects] tab and moving some components from [Environment - Special Effect] into it.

Optimized the description of the Survivor Talent "Brewing Effect."
Updated the Post-game Chat Channel so it no longer displays information about players joining the chat.

Added auto-purchase support for the [Daily 288 Clue Package] and [Daily 128 Fragment Package]. When enabled, these packages will be purchased automatically each day when you log in or are online. The items will be delivered directly to your account. If you do not have enough Echoes, the purchase will fail. Please refer to the in-game rules for details. This feature must be enabled manually.

Added a new [My Achievements] tab under [My Tournaments] on the Profile page. This label displays your chosen Home Team, as well as your viewing and prediction data from past tournaments. You can hide this data in the settings interface.
Added a cooldown for messages in the Home Team channel. As the Home Team's Support Points increase and Collectibles are unlocked, the cooldown for sending messages in the Home Team channel will gradually decrease from 40 seconds to 3 seconds.
