Since we have added multiple DLC contents related to crowdfunding, and these DLCs are planned to be free for crowdfunding backers, we will reissue DLC keys through the crowdfunding platform.
If you backed the crowdfunding campaign, please check the crowdfunding platform for the corresponding DLC content.

Dear players, happy Chinese New Year!
Another year has passed. With your support, we’ve made it through another year smoothly, delivered multiple major updates, and released a new DLC.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for another year of encouragement and support. We believe we can do even better in the year ahead.
Taking this opportunity, we’d like to share some information many of you care about, including our current status, future progress, and related plans.

We have completed the shipment of all physical crowdfunding rewards, and we have finished producing all crowdfunding content except the DLC, including the milestone promises.
However, as of now, a large number of crowdfunding backers still haven’t submitted their reward requests. Your request remains valid long-term, but starting from now, implementing late requests may take more time. Thank you for your understanding.
Crowdfunding content checklist:
●New weapons: All proposed items have been implemented and updated.
●New skins: All proposed items have been implemented and updated.
●Quick Challenge mode: Implemented.
●Controller & local co-op improvements: Implemented.
●Combat animations & art updates: Completed.
Special Note: Due to the large number and variety of crowdfunding requests across multiple platforms, we cannot proactively verify that all requests have been fulfilled. If you find your crowdfunding request has not been met, please send us a private message via the corresponding platform.

Because we’ve been continuously maintaining and updating the base game (and many of these updates have been fairly large), the DLC has fallen behind our original schedule.
As a result, Version 2.6 (the next update) will theoretically be the last free major content update for the game. (This does not include updates tied to positive reviews. See the next section.)
Going forward, we will put all of our focus into finishing the DLC that is still in progress. Of course, bug fixes and balance tuning will continue as usual.

Our promise made in 2023 (before the crowdfunding began) is still valid. The content we committed to releasing when the game’s review rating exceeded 88% / 89% has already been implemented.
Details: We’ve also updated the roadmap. When the review rating reaches 90% / 91%, we will continue to add free content. This decision does not conflict with the DLC plan mentioned above.

Many players have appealed to us through the community and private messages to remove skin purchases using tokens, we understand and support the community’s decision. Therefore, in Version 2.6 (the next update), we plan to make the following changes based on the suggestions from the majority of players:
1.The Skin Shop will be removed, and all tokens will be refunded.
We plan to launch a new token shop, mainly for redeeming items such as “weapon manufacturer naming rights” and “new weapon proposal rights”, which have already been implemented through crowdfunding. Players who already have tokens will be able to use all refunded tokens to redeem these items directly.
2.Crowdfunding skins will be released as a DLC, and all crowdfunding backers will receive it for free.Backers at the highest crowdfunding tier will permanently receive all new skin DLCs for free.Non-crowdfunding skins will be released as regular DLCs, and future skin DLCs will follow the same principle. During this process, some skins may be temporarily removed from sale.
[The specific implementation details of the above items will be announced with the v2.6 update.

This plan is based on the information we have received so far. Depending on feedback after this announcement is published, the plan may still be adjusted, modified, or canceled. You’re welcome to vote, share feedback, or message us directly. The final decision will prioritize the experience of the majority of players.
