In response to our community's request for even more challenging content, this update was designed to cater especially to the needs of more seasoned players, and they will only be able to unlock new challenges after successfully completing previous ones.
Check out the complete list of changes:
Fixes
- Fixed an issue where the game's language could reset to default.
- Fixed an issue where scrubbing through the timeline of a large replay file could crash the game.
- Fixed an issue that could cause crashes in some Hardpoint Arenas.
- Fixed Jinfeng's grab attack in Replays.
- Fixed an issue in the Death Menu with the "Reversed Aging" cheat, for which pendant coins would reappear too early with a high Death Counter.
- Fixed an issue where the Avoid tutorial against the Juggernaut grab attack in the Squats couldn't be cleared if the Press Type was set to "Toggle" for guarding in the controller settings.
- Fixed an issue where some SFX could be heard repeatedly during gameplay and in the Replay Editor when cheats are active.
- Fixed the incorrect age display when the "Infinite Lives" cheat is active.
- Fixed the overlapping boss bars in the "Travel Broadens the Mind" challenge.
Sound Design

UI/UX

- Added visual feedback on the enemies and bosses' structure bar when using the "Environmental Weakness" and "Structure Only" cheats.
- Fixed various UI issues.
Design
- Added 8 new Modifiers.
- Added 19 new Cheats, including 8 individual move replacements, and 3 full moveset replacements.
- Moveset cheats replacements: Jump Punch: Running Light Attack → Duck Strike Bodyguard Grab: Crooked Foot → Running Light Attack
- Arenas Custom Mode: You can choose modifiers or cheats to overwrite a challenge’s with. Stamps cannot be earned with the Custom Mode active. Not all cheats/modifiers are available in this mode. An arena-exclusive “Master Difficulty” cheat is available in the “Miscellaneous” tab
- A Modifiers Randomizer has been added to the Modifiers menu. You can customize, to a degree, which random selection of Modifiers/Cheats will be used for the next level/challenge. Modifiers & Cheats not yet unlocked may be randomly selected too. Progress is stopped with the Randomizer enabled, except with the “Modifiers only” parameter.
- Moved the “Permanent Damage” modifier to its own category (“Health Recovery'') to which the “Legacy” cheat has been added. The Goals texts have been updated accordingly.
- 10 new achievements (clearing them is not needed for the platinum trophy/“Fist of the Immortal” achievement)
- Increased the currency given by the goals "Strike!", "Friendly fire", "Teamwork" and "Inspiration Windfall" by 50 to prevent a very rare softlock preventing further Cheat unlocks. The total 200 additional currency should be retroactively added to your total if you had already cleared these goals.
Localisation
- New localisation for the entire fifth content update.
- Fixed pieces of Chinese text on some walls in the Tower and in the Sanctuary.
