However, to keep BREAK ARTS III going, we have had to take on other work, which takes time away from development. We are still progressing, but delivery is expected to take some time.

In this first installment, we're taking another look at the in-match UI!

Match UI Revamp

First of all, we have revamped the in-match UI. We have heard some feedback that visibility was poor, information was spread out all over, and the player unit info UI would move during matches—which actually made it harder to see.

Along with changes to the combat system, we have implemented the following adjustments to address these issues as well.

[Left: Old UI] [Right: New UI]

We reconsidered what information is important during matches and made the following improvements:

  • Integrated surrounding information into the minimap, while keeping the focus solely on the locked-on target

  • Displayed the target’s rank and status on the lock-on marker

  • Fixed the position of player unit info and adjusted the display balance

We hope these changes lead to a better play experience for everyone!

Additionally, in Diorama Mode's dedicated machine designer, you should be able to use parts that are normally locked, but a bug is currently preventing locked parts from appearing. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. This will be fixed in the next update, so thank you for your patience.
