- [Notice] Current Development Priorities and Future Update Direction - 20 February 2026
Current PrioritiesThe top development priorities are optimization, critical bug fixes, and improving quality of life (QoL) to ensure a smooth gameplay environment.Ensuring the game runs smoothly across a vast range of PC environments is a necessary precursor to adding larger-scale new content without issues.Regarding Balance PatchesBalance patches primarily involve adjusting numerical values and are considered supplementary tasks that require minimal development effort.These adjustments are made alongside main tasks, focusing on the most frequently mentioned feedback, and do not significantly impact the overall development cost.Future Update Direction (New Content)The stabilization work to solidify the foundation is gradually improving.
