JTW Fall Update

We are honored to be on the Tencent GWB 2021 shortlist! Join our discord channel to learn more!



Major updates


[h2]Trial mode[/h2]

We have added a trial mode on top of normal story mode. After finishing a normal game, you will be able to enter trial mode. Currently we released 16 trial levels, each adding incremental challenges to the game.



[h2]Black market redesign[/h2]
Black Market was redesigned to include entirely new functionality and improved strategic importance during gameplay. Besides purchasing special cards, relics, and consumables, you can also purify spirits, upgrade companions, and purchase talent points.



Spirit Purification is an interesting new function. You can purify the spirit of NPCs you’ve encountered and seal it into a bottle of purification. Later you will be able to use it as a helping hand in combat. The consumable “Bottle of Purification” is not required to perform Spirit Purification.



Purchase Talent Point - now 1 talent point is available each time you enter a black market, starting at 500 gold.

Upgrade Companion is moved from camp to black market.


[h2]In-game compendium[/h2]
We built an in-game compendium so that players can check out full information about cards, relics, consumables, and NPCs anywhere in the game.
