The broadcast covered new limited S-Class characters, story progression, summer-themed activities, city expansions, vehicles, a new property, outfits, quality-of-life improvements, and limited-time redeem codes. Viewers learned about banner schedules, signature Arcs, and how the update builds on prior versions while leaning into lighter seasonal gameplay. Three codes were shared live: FOGDENGAME, EYEOFDELUSION, and SUMMERTIME. Each grants 100 Annulith plus various materials and Beetle Coins. They remain active until August 10, 2026, at 23:59 (UTC+8). Players who log in after the update also receive 10 Solid Dice.
Overall, the stream painted Version 1.3 as a mix of serious story continuation against The Scarlet Letter and relaxed summer content, including beach activities, new exploration options, and permanent modes for some previous events.
Top 5 New Additions
1. Limited S-Class Characters Zankou and Linko
Zankou arrives as an Incantation main DPS with the Eye of Delusion ability, supporting dual Reality/Illusion states and emotion-sensing illusions. Players who obtain her also unlock her story outfit Red Nightshade for free. Linko joins as an Anima character focused on AoE and quickswap play, using Telepathy to sync frequencies with her partner Xiaozhen. She comes with new interactions such as Ride-Along, Little Sparrow, and Move-In. Their signature Arcs are Ravenous Blade (S-Rank Solid for Zankou) and Voice of the Voyager (S-Rank Plasma for Linko). Banners run in two phases of about 21 days each: first half features Zankou on "Alluring Shadows" alongside a Nanally rerun, while the second half brings Linko on "Surfing All Channels!" with a Hotori rerun.
2. Main Story Chapter and New Locations
The new episode "Rising from the Moonlit Fog" continues directly from Version 1.1 events. It focuses on Eibon, the ETD, and the confrontation with The Scarlet Letter after they seized anomalies tied to Past, Present, and Future. Key elements include a showdown in the Fogden area (a new story domain) and involvement from characters like Chaos, Linko, Nitsa, and Hotori. The city expands with the Duskmoor region, offering highway driving, Oracle Stones collectibles, and racing challenges.
3. New Vehicles
Summer mobility gets a boost with several additions. The Tide is a new jet-ski available through the Mystery Box system alongside related outfits. Sirocco arrives as a dune buggy that can be purchased with Fons. Yesteryear, a bicycle, appears in the second phase and supports Bike Ride-Along interactions. These expand open-world travel and pair well with the seasonal theme.
4. Stillmeadow Property and Brick By Brick Hobby
A new standalone house called Stillmeadow becomes available in the Miguel District. It features a quieter, more home-like style with farmland for growing crops that can be sold for Fons. Alongside this, the Hethereau Hobbies system gains Brick By Brick, a set of construction challenges using machines like excavators that reward players for completing tasks.
5. Summer Events and Permanent Modes
A full slate of seasonal activities launches, including Volley Star (2v2 beach volleyball with progression and rankings), Shipwreck Salvage (jet-ski based cargo recovery), Breezy Tour, Runaway Echoes (Anomalous Realm survival with card upgrades and endless modes), Surf Breaker, Hunter’s Crucible, Bagel Supplies, and returning modes like Gold Clash, Pixel Surge, Fons Rush, and Stamina Recharge. New challenges expand the 999 Nights mode. Going! Going! Gone! and Shadow and Seek become permanent, while other quality-of-life updates include randomizable outfits, better lighting and shadows, UI toggle options, and accessory toggles for certain skins.
