『Dev Diary』Are There Ghosts in the Zodiac Trials? + Playtest Reset News

Greetings Challengers! Our Dev Diary roundup this month is gonna be quick but loaded with sneak-peeks regarding our future content, and plans for future private playtests.

Highlight 1: The Horse Zodiac is gonna be one of the bosses!

Here is an early WIP glimpse of our upcoming Horse Zodiac fight! In case you missed it, we had a deeper dive here

This preview showcases The Mistress of Wind’s high mobility and arena control. Expect long-range AoE strikes and horse followers summoned to distract you.

We also shared some shots captured while we’re testing our Photo Mode. More of them can be found on our Discord.

Highlight 2: Throwback to Goat Zodiac’s early beginnings.

Time for a developer flashback! This was how the Goat Zodiac (and 13Z) looked like during the very early phase of dev. Arena control and wide-range strikes were already part of the Goat’s core kit.

Highlight 3: Ghosts?!!!

These aren’t ghosts! They are Phantasms conjured by one of the upgrades from The Lake Seal. They swarm mobs with a heavy barrage of attacks, making fights feel downright unfair...

Highlight 4: Someone’s about to roll into the Trials!

Something heavy is rolling through the battlefield and sending enemies flying like bowling pins! Drop your guesses in the comments below... should be a pretty easy one if you've been following our dev!

Playtest Reset

If you were part of our public playtest roster back in 2024-2025 and you still have 13Z's playtest build in your library, you'd have read our post in our playtest community hub.

We’ll be organizing smaller private playtest groups to focus on small features in sandbox environments. We promise it's for the good of the game (and sanity of our dev team).🙏
