You'll encounter items with absurdly powerful effects that drastically reshape the battlefield.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The mode will still allow you to generate and share lineup codes after a run. [/p][p]However, since its mechanics and values are deliberately more "unrestrained" compared to previous modes, lineup codes shared from this mode will be clearly labeled to distinguish them.[/p][p]We hope this new mode lets everyone set aside the pressure, unwind, and fully enjoy the pure fun of experimentation and chaos![/p][h2][/h2][h2]2.New Toys Join the Battle![/h2][p]We've expanded the battlefield with 30+ new toys, primarily focusing on extensions for Undead, Note, Alien, and Building types.[/p][p][/p][p]We can't wait to see how these newcomers deepen your strategic compositions![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]3.New Class Ability Items[/h2][p]Additionally, 10+ new class ability items have been added.

The DLC pack includes character skins and a profile skin.[/p][p][/p][p]Before you visit the store, check out the new entry point on the main menu to read short comics that reveal the stories behind these "villainous" outfits![/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We hope these outfits offer more than just a visual refresh, adding a touch of storytelling and depth to the companions through these small narrative glimpses.[/p][p][/p][h2]Patch Notes[/h2][h3]New Features[/h3]
