New Map, New Story

 
[h3]Miasmic Swamp area becomes available.[/h3]
A new map, Miasmic Swamp, becomes available. Vera's ecosystem is taken to a whole new level by the map's unique landform filled with rock pillars and rainforest vegetation found in the Miasmic area.



 
[h3]Rich and diverse exploration and puzzle-solving mechanism to set off a new adventure.[/h3]
 

I. Interacting in many scenes with diverse settings and trying out interesting puzzle-solving gameplay.

Further enriches the exploration experience by allowing Wanderers to interact with Colorful Mushrooms.

 



There are Colorful Mushrooms in many different colors all over the rainforest. Try to interact with them to solve the puzzle!

 



There are special triggers scattered on the ground. Activate their core and obtain rewards by stepping on the baseplate correctly. Trigger conditions vary for different colors.

 

II. All-new adventure experience. Unmask the secret in the mist!

This mysterious swamp is shrouded by heavy mist. Let's search for the secret hiding in the mist together!



 

The swamp mist came from Titan Konjac, which continues releasing poison gas to prevent travelers from getting close to it. But to the surrounding area of Titan Konjac, you can find an item called Revelation Seed, which is the starting point of purifying the mist.

To be able to obtain the Revelation Seed with ease, Wanderers need to activate the Purification System first to temporarily neutralize the poisons of Titan Konjac. After gathering the Revelation Seed, Wanderers can now activate "Brood" to summon creatures and defeat them to obtain Germinated Revelation Seed. By then, it can be used to shut down Titan Konjac and purify the poison mist in the forest.

 

[Purification System]

A machine that houses Revelation Seeds. Once activated, it sprays an atomized mist of diluted Revelation Tree Sap in every direction,which neutralizes the poison of Titan Konjac within the effective duration. Make sure you activate it before stepping into the mist!



 

 

[Revelation Seed]

Revelation Seeds grow within the poison gas of Titan Konjac. Wanderers need to gather them to trigger the creature inside the Brood.



 

 

[Brood]

Found in the swamp, it's a special, egg-like structure which can be activated by using revelation seeds and different kinds of elemental ores. With the right combination of catalysts, powerful creatures can be hatched from these structures.



 

 

[Germinated Revelation Seed]

After defeating the elite enemies, Wanderers can obtain the Germinated Revelation Seed to shut down Titan Konjac.
