Version 1.2: 999 Nights Preview Recap

The centrepiece of 1.2 is 999 Nights, an anomaly tabletop role-playing game from sponsor TST POP that the cast literally sits down to play. In the new main story, Mint gathers everyone for a game night with the EAE-2 newcomers, and you become characters on the board, swept away to the continent of Warren.

From the Fluffy Village (home of the cute little Fluffies, who have a dragon problem) your four-person party crosses green plains, a volcanic region, an ice field and the sealands, fighting monsters until you reach Dragonsreach and the evil Red Dragon, the final boss.

• Classes, XP and gear. Each of the four party members (the appraiser, Mint, Iroi and Shinku) has a class. Beating monsters earns XP to level up, plus equipment and items.
• A full loot system. Seven equipment slots with rarities, class restrictions and randomly rolled stats, an Appraisal skill to identify new drops, armour set bonuses, and a rarer accessory category with surprise effects.
• Camps and the Fluff Merchant. You can only inspect or swap gear near a camp or campfire, where you rest, regroup and trade with the mysterious Fluff Merchant. Campfires are scattered around so a breather is never far.
• What you wear, you see. Some slots have their own models, so your look changes in real time as you swap a piece. Chase higher stats or just build your favourite drip.
• Permanent and replayable. Warren stays available for good; later playthroughs unlock new regions, missions and higher-level gear. You earn Wonder Buttons for a long-term event shop, including outfits you can wear back in Hethereau.

Shinku is a reserved close-combat agent from the EAE-2 Anomaly Control Bureau, with the Cosmos attribute and a “keep your distance” aura that hides how reliable she is. She is Mint's newest teammate, and her whole hook is that she fights in two completely different forms.

• Normal form. She chains up to five martial-arts hits; landing the 3rd or 5th (or holding it) fills her Defiant Spirit gauge toward Frenzy Mode. Perfect-dodge an attack that flashes red and she counters with a flying kick that also chips the target's break gauge.
• Mental Gaze. Stand still for a moment and she enters a Mental Gaze state, where a post-dodge counter does extra damage and pushes the target back.
• Crimson Frenzy → Waving Purple. Her ultimate spends all her Defiance to enter Waving Purple, transforming her whole kit: standard attacks become Tidal Attack, her resource switches to Fading Reason, and she can chain Crimson Execution into a Dragon Flame Judgment finisher.
• Open world and teamplay. Out of combat she trades power for mobility, with big movement and climbing speed. On a team, swapping to her with a matching Esper attribute triggers the Esper cycle and a Recharge buff for off-field allies.

Iroi also works in EAE-2, alongside Mint and Shinku. She is the warm, popular volunteer guide from the Dreamwalk Corridor episode, and her Anima power turns dreams into a lasting field built by her three lambs: Phantasos, Morpheus and Icelos.

• Open-world perk. Interacting with small animals has a chance to give useful items, up to twice a day.
• Healing and reinforcement. Her standard attack summons the lambs and builds Imagination. Her redirect can drop three teammates into a Regression state, where they go invulnerable and are replaced by the lambs; anyone who falls while she is fighting also enters Regression.
• The Gates of Dreams. Below the Imagination threshold her ultimate heals the whole team (Horned Gate); above it, the Ivory Gate deals continuous damage and can revive teammates swapped in from Regression.
• Support cycle. Her support skill heals all allies, builds Imagination and feeds the flowering cycle a second Vita bud.

Two limited boards run back to back at the Salhowk Fair to pull the new agents.

• Before the Dawn & The Lifeline. The two limited boards run 21 days each, rolling for the limited S-rank Shinku, then Iroi. New skin-perk events run alongside, with skins dropping on the board and guaranteed once you hit a set throw count.
• Arc research programs. Two new Arc programs land in the Arc shop: Shinku's Determination Special Edition and Iroi's Dream Goal Special Edition, each synced to its character's board.
• Exchange shop restock. Part of the exchange shop restocks at launch, with Lost Figures buying dice and up to 20 triple keys.

Version 1.2 brings 19 brand-new outfits across several updates, starting with the 999 Nights series you can trade for Wonder Buttons in the event shop.

• Warren vs Hethereau. On Warren you mix and match pieces freely; in Hethereau the same outfits sell as full sets only. Shinku's Dragon Warrior outfit carries a special ability effect.
• Dyes. Outfits are dyeable with dye orbs; the first batch covers 33 style variations, with textures and patterns matched to each look.
• Summer looks. Shinku and Iroi each get urban and airy summer outfits, with more summer outfits and swimwear for familiar faces coming in 1.3.
• The Draco. Hethereau's first fantasy-style vehicle breaks the rules: it moves sideways and lifts its frame mid-drive. Shinku can ride it, and it gets a special look when she wears Dragon Warrior.

A pile of city upgrades land with 1.2, most of them about keeping the open world low-effort and personal.

• Fishkeeping. Sea Angler finally lets you keep your favourite fish in a home aquarium, with freshwater and saltwater tanks, temperature, pH and species compatibility, plus automatic temperature, water and feeding so it stays easy. A rare catch can ride on the back of your car to show off in the city.
• Riichi Mahjong. Little Sparrow adds Riichi Mahjong, a defensive, competition-oriented variant, playable at the Maid Cafe or any house with a mahjong table, alongside the existing Mahjong Inferno.
• Decorative Blueprint. Save home designs as building-plan codes and share them through Bagel (up to 20 saved). One tap furnishes the place; you still have to unlock the furniture yourself.
• Smaller wins. Cleaner avatar display, a simpler portable-player UI, hold-to-select materials when leveling characters, Arcs and consoles, a report system for mini-racing online battles, and the option to hide individual outfit parts.

On top of the new mode and hobbies, a run of limited events fills out the version.

• Going once, going twice, sold!. An auction event where you read the room, with companions and your own support item feeding hints about each lot's type, value and rarity before you bid.
• Shadow Hide and Seek. Hide-and-seek on the grounds of Clement Academy: hiders transform into campus objects and can drop a decoy, while hunters scan to find them and lose HP for hitting the wrong target.
• Fishing Frenzy. A harpoon-and-net minigame where you level up to unlock new fishing skills.
• Meow Report & Circular Gift. A daily scratch-off ticket from city newsstands, plus the returning Circular Gift login event giving up to 10 special dice over seven days.

Version 1.2's story is a lighter one, set after the Scarlet Letter incident when everyone returns to everyday life and that EAE-2 game night turns into the 999 Nights adventure.

The Scarlet Letter arc itself, after seizing the First Branch, the Eternal Present and Theseus's steering wheel, builds to its Episode 1 finale in Version 1.3, alongside relaxed summer events, more vehicles and a quiet self-build house. Off-screen, NTE launches on Steam, the Epic Games Store and the Samsung Galaxy Store on July 8, the team is at Anime Expo 2026 (July 2 to 5), and the NTE x Beard Papa's collab runs to July 13.
