From now on, summon cards that are played have to form one of the pre-defined party compositions.

These compositions, and their bonuses, can be seen in a new info panel avialable via new star button.

When cards are selected, the best party they can form will be shown above the battlefield. Summons that are in the party will get a bonus, and will fight for you, while those that are not in the party will flee instead. Playing additional summons can still be beneficial though - it can trigger artifacts, grant global bonuses, or help circumvent negative enemy modifiers.

Shop cards section can now contain new upgrade cards for parties. This will help you make them even more powerful!

There are some other changes as well. One worth mentioning is that encounter selection now features the upcoming boss encounter, which should help you prepare. No more dead ends due to investment into mono-element build that just got debuffed!

On the new cards front, the Order part is done, and I'm now working on Chaos. I hope you'll like them!

And on a final note, release date is now set to the 4th quarter of 2026!
