Battle Talent has reached its 2nd anniversary! A huge thank you to all our players - your continuous support fuels our passion to create exciting new content and richer experiences. 
Without further ado, let's dive into what's new in this update:

Face off against the evil and powerful Flame Demon along with Challenge Dungeon Lv3!


The Fire Demon brings unique mechanics that require agile responses - stay focused and sharpen your battle instincts!

Enemies in Challenge Dungeon Lv3 have received special enchantments, becoming stronger and deadlier - one careless move and you'll meet your end at their blades!
Multiplayer now includes Dungeon Lv2 and Lv3. The Flame Demon also appears in Dungeon Lv3 and the Synced Arena, allowing you to team up and conquer evil with your friends!


A weapon of legend, the subject of countless tales and the yearning of warriors past and present. Embed Spell Stones to rend the fabric of space, unleashing elemental magic from beyond, be it searing flame or biting frost, granting special magical effects to your sword.
If multiple Spell Stones are embedded, switch between them and press Trigger + A/X to combine selected spell crystal's power into existing magical rifts! Many more secret capabilities of this legendary weapon await discovery, enabling countless dynamic combos!







To fundamentally reduce multiplayer latency and improve the overall experience, multiplayer now supports Dedicated Servers!
As long as you have an internet-connected PC, you can easily set up your own server and enjoy smooth co-op gameplay with friends.
All players connect directly to the server, significantly reducing latency. The host no longer bears the performance load, greatly minimizing stuttering and lag. You can even keep the server running, so you and your friends can hop in and play anytime!
You can click here to view the setup guide and deploy your server with ease.


We've meticulously crafted two brand-new skins: Knight of Ashes and Grim Blade!
These paid cosmetic skins are available for purchase or gifting in the multiplayer lobby, and can also be used in single-player mode for a more immersive experience.
 

Demon Flame Greatsword: A massive two-handed sword dropped by the defeated Flame Demon, still infused with traces of its power. Swing it to unleash searing evil flames.



Combat physics are now more realistic, you can block and push away enemies and their weapons. Enemies will also better gauge their distance and positioning. Stay alert and fight strategically!
Many visual and audio effects have been refreshed, providing even richer feedback. Enemy modding interface and parrying tutorials have been adjusted to reduce confusion.
Performance issues such as frame drops and crashes have been addressed, aiming for a smoother gaming experience.
Human enemies now come with new armor visuals, and we've refreshed a wide range of effects and sounds to make combat feel more impactful. We've also fine-tuned the Mod NPC interface and parry tutorial levels to make them more intuitive and easier to navigate.



This covers the key highlights of this update. Many more details await your discovery in-game, we can't wait to hear about your adventures!


A heartfelt thank you to all beta testers for their valuable contributions!

We know you’ve been itching for new weapons, and we’ve got three fresh ones ready to shake things up! Two in-game beasts and one official mod weapon, each packing some seriously cool abilities. Can’t wait to see the insane combos you come up with!

We’re also always listening to community feedback (if you haven’t joined yet, now’s the time!). This update brings smoother hand tracking, better sound effects, improved MR performance, and some key bug fixes, including crash issues and object collisions when crouching. Let’s jump in!


[h2] New Weapon: Spear of Return [/h2]

Throw! Pierce! Recall! Detonate!

Hurl the spear with divine retribution, its blade piercing through multiple enemies. If it strikes terrain, the impaled foes will be pinned like specimens.



The Spear of Return obeys your command—summon it back instantly at any time. But this is only the beginning of the true art of slaughter. When recalled, an illusory shadow lingers in place, and all remnants of these shadows become deadly bombs you’ve strategically planted!



[h2] New Weapon: Thunderbolt Wolf Claw [/h2]

Each strike charges the weapon with unstable lightning energy. After multiple attacks, lightning surges forth, triggering chain lightning that weaves a deadly electric web across your enemies.

When the lightning is at its peak, you can launch the electrified claws, transforming them into a raging storm of lightning that electrifies everything in its path.





Once the claws are thrown, you can instantly reforge them, triggering a shockwave that paralyzes nearby enemies.





[h2] New Official Mod Weapon: Khopeshrang [/h2]

(Requires download from the mod menu)

When thrown, the Khopeshrang will automatically return to your hand. Hold to charge, and upon hitting its first target, it will begin a spatial teleportation slash between enemies. Raise your hand and swing in midair, and the Khopeshrang will obey, striking down your chosen prey with deadly precision.

At any time during this sequence, you can reactivate it to have the Khopeshrang orbit around you, creating a spinning blade barrier that repels any enemy daring to approach.


[h2] Major Improvements [/h2]

Sound Enhancements: We’ve improved numerous sound effects, including most weapon and environmental audio. We’ll continue optimizing in-game audio—stay tuned!

Better Item Interaction: When crouching to pick up objects or enemy corpses, your legs will no longer accidentally kick them away. Now, leg collisions are ignored when crouching, making it easier to interact with objects on the ground.



Weapon Tutorials: To help players master weapons more easily, you can now watch weapon demo videos from both the Talent Tablet and Cheat Menu.



Crash Fixes: We’ve resolved several crash-related issues for a smoother experience.

Japanese Language Support: The game now supports Japanese, and weapon descriptions have been refined for better clarity.

Hand Tracking & MR Enhancements:
- Hand movement tracking is now smoother, weapons are less likely to slip, and fist punching is supported.
- MR enemy and player body visuals have been improved, and weapons now refresh post-battle for a seamless experience.
