Additionally, we've optimized dubbing and subtitles in various story quests. We will continue to refine the localization of the game to make the Jianghu more immersive.[/p]
• [p]In terms of the interface, we've improved the beginner tutorial, enhanced character customization, and refined English clues for puzzle-solving quests.[/p]

For more details on fixes and improvements, please stay tuned for our official announcements.[/p][p]Looking ahead, we're committed to ongoing improvements in other key issues that concern you most including text localization, PS5 compatibility, and multi-character creation features.[/p][p]Optimizing multilingual localization is a continuous effort, and we’ve received many impressive translation suggestions through our open channels. We plan to launch co-creation events in the future, allowing your voice to shape the world of Where Winds Meet.[/p][p]For the PS5 platform, we’re working hard to enhance frame rates, stability, and visual quality. You can expect to see these gameplay improvements within the year.[/p][p]Regarding multi-character creation, we’re addressing platform restrictions and actively seeking solutions to meet your expectations.[/p][p]Over the next two months, we will gradually roll out several updates, including Steam Deck compatibility, optimized multi-timezone display, split outfit customization, PS5 Pro support for PSSR, enhanced audio experience, and more.
