In the Apocalyptic Shadow game mode, players will engage in tough challenges facing previously encountered enemies. However, there will be slight differences in the case of enemy bosses. The end goal here is to secure more scores to obtain rewards.
Listed below are the features of Apocalyptic Shadow:
- The new game mode will undergo scheduling shifts along with Pure Fiction and the Memory of Chaos.
- Apocalyptic Shadow will also introduce team setup function optimization, where a composition can be set up in advance as presets. There will be a drag-and-drop feature to transfer characters.
Another new upcoming feature includes the option to view a team setup used by a friend to clear endgame content. Players should also be able to check the gear of their companions and consult them about lineups via a new system.
