First, we apologize for the long wait for updates regarding "Ranked Match," which was announced for implementation between June and August. Development is progressing smoothly, but due to the need to implement security updates last month, we are currently preparing for an August release.
Please see below for an updated development roadmap.
Next Update Scheduled for August:
The final character for Season 4, Lucy, a guest character from "Cyberpunk: Edgerunners," the new Ranked Match mode, and battle balance adjustments are all planned for the August update.
The specific update date will be announced at the fighting game tournament "EVO," held in Las Vegas, USA, from August 1st to 3rd (local time). Please look forward to it.
Battle Balance Adjustments:
Let's discuss some of the upcoming changes.
We plan to make adjustments along the following lines for universal game mechanics that have brought up concerns:
・Revise the properties of Wild Assault::The plan is to reduce the utility and dependency on Wild Assault.
・Revise the effects of Guard Crush::The plan is to make it easier to deal with.
・Revise the specifications around the R.I.S.C. level::We are aiming for adjustments where a small amount of accumulation no longer easily leads to high damage compared to before.
We do not plan to strengthen alternative systems or add new systems as a result of these revisions. Individual character adjustments will be made based on the revisions of these universal mechanics.
