Official updates

Training Room and a new top difficulty

The August 5 update adds The Blood Moon Has Arrived, a Training Room, Battle Scar rerolls, golden weapon skins, and two Relic reworks.

Open official announcement

Update 8.5 - V1.0.487

Update summary

The new top difficulty adds a clear reward tied to the weapons you carry, while the Training Room gives every hunter a place to configure and test a build before committing to a run.

Key changes

  1. 01

    The Blood Moon Has Arrived is added above Blood Moon; clearing it unlocks golden skins for the weapons carried at the time of the clear, alongside new achievements.

  2. 02

    Talk to the dummy next to Lily in camp to enter the Training Room and freely configure and test builds.

  3. 03

    Battle Scars can now be rerolled at the start of a run; the system menu gains an Item Encyclopedia, and English voice acting is added.

  4. 04

    Overloaded Capacitor now front-loads Ultimate energy, King Hunter's Bullet scales Bullet Attack Cap through Smite, and Silent Hermit no longer applies outside combat.

What it means for a run

Build testing no longer requires spending a live run to confirm the basic loop. For the new difficulty, the weapon set carried at clear time determines which golden skins are awarded, so keep the intended cosmetic targets equipped before the final clear.

What to do next

  1. 01

    Use the Training Room to test Ultimate uptime, Smite scaling, and the minimum pieces needed for the build before entering the new difficulty.

  2. 02

    Choose the weapons whose golden skins you want before the clear, then use the Battle Scar reroll to protect the build's most important action or resource loop.
