■NEW STAGE: Paris (Evening)!


In ACT:3, Runners will have a new variant stage to explore: Paris (Evening)
There are bridges in Paris that can be used for tactical advantage, but Runners can also be knocked off of them so tread carefully!

Here are some of the main features that Runners can look forward to in the Season 1 ACT:3 Update:


■ Gold Shop Rental System
Introducing our new Rental System! Previously, Runners could only buy skins and items, they can now use Magna Credits to rent items for a fixed amount of time! Once a rental has extended its time limit, it will automatically be removed from the Runner’s inventory. However, there is no limit to the amount of times you can rent, so feel free to try out that skin you’ve been considering!

■Custom Matches
Custom Matches now feature the following:

◆Room Display
Rooms that have been created will now be displayed in a list. Runners can enter these rooms without a Room Code.

◆Spectators
In addition to 6 slots for Players, each custom match will now allow for a maximum of 6 Runners to watch as spectators.

◆Spectator Camera
Spectators will be able to use a button to zoom in on Runners or instantly move to designated spots at each stage.

■Steam Version: Keyboard & Mouse Option
The Steam version now allows movement and UI operation with keyboard and mouse input.
*Note: To launch the game, a VR headset must be properly connected to the SteamVR app.
*Note: A VR headset is required for matches.


■ Battle Pass Updates
This feature allows Runners to earn rewards through XP. Since it’s a limited-time pass with a set duration, make sure to pay attention to the end date.
*Note: The items obtained through the Battle Pass can generally only be acquired during the event period, with no plans to make them available after the event ends.

■Gold Shop Lineup
Exclusive LEVIN & SKYBOLT bundles have been added to the Gold Shop.
Each bundle includes: Runner Skin, Gauntlet Skin, Main Weapon Skin & Card.
*Note: Items are not sold separately
*Note: "Brazen Gold" is required for purchase.
*Note: "Brazen Gold" can be purchased within the game.
