Public Lobby System

Now you can easily access other players' arcades without an invitation code! The ‘Join Other Arcades’ option in the system menu displays arcades that are currently being accessed by players. Enjoy games with new friends!

Jukebox & Figure cabinet

You can display figures and OSTs obtained through gacha in My Arcade and enjoy them with others.

Emoticon Feature

Enhance in-game communication with various emoticons! More emoticons will be available through gacha and other methods in the future.

Player Card & Personal Heart System

Now you can see the scores you have earned and remaining hearts at a glance through the player card at the bottom of the screen.

Moreover, the system has been changed from sharing hearts among all team members to each player having their own hearts.

Carry System Addition

Previously, there were specific conditions required for success in each game, and once a player met those conditions, any additional points were meaningless. This often led to a lack of tension before the game ended.

Now, points earned beyond the cutline in minigames are transferred to other players. Earn lots of points and carry your team to victory!

Steam Achievements Added

New challenges with Steam achievements have been added! Achieved milestones and their requirements can be checked on the game page on Steam and on the achievements board in My Arcade.

It's been 7 months since we announced the roadmap to you in June 2023. Since then, we've been busy with everything from minor bug fixes to adding and improving minigames, final boss battles, endings... and today, the addition of My Arcade and the new lobby system that many players have been looking forward to! It's been a breathless half year. But I want to say that our journey is just beginning!

Here's the new roadmap.
