  • The new storyline on theĀ Aland IslandĀ will be completely separated from the original main story, so you can do the new content at any time. However, Inside Games recommends doing both stories in parallel, as the new storyline will add more depth to the original story, and you can also strengthen your characters in the former.
  • One of the new explorable areas on the island will be a Tower, which will include traverse attempts on high beams to reach treasure chests. Falling down these beams will not deal any actual damage, though, so players will be able to comfortably challenge the paths.
  • The new Mana Hold action will play many roles in the Tower, with features ranging from placing climbing spots to mitigating several boss attacks.
  • The new Muspelheim challenge dungeon will have a very hard difficulty. The score gathered from a gameplay session will be converted to crystals that can be used to unlock more benefits in the dungeon, such as extending the time limit, improving treasure boxes’ qualitiesĀ and frequencies, and adjusting enemy strengths.
  • The Colosseum will feature battles against strong enemies in both duo and solo character modes, and rewards will be given based on the clear time rank and character mode.
  • Ride Races will have 3 modes: Race, Score, and Time. You can choose to play as Adol or Karja, and the other one not chosen will appear as a rival in Race Mode.
  • A new Endless Waters zone is also added as an endgame feature for naval battles, with the highest 5-star difficulty level. You can fight as many waves as the time limit allows, and once it runs out you’ll enter the final wave where you can win by defeating all enemies.
