    Pawprint Studio redesigned the Legendary Aniimo encounter flow, addressing feedback on capture mechanics, gameplay experience, and the encounter ritual itself. The studio says this updated structure will serve as the foundation for future Legendary Aniimo events.

    Training improvements include a simplified Held Item System, increased Star Dust drop rates, and progression caps that unlock naturally alongside an Aniimo's level progression. The team also refined level progression and upgrade mechanics in Homeland gameplay while expanding the map with additional features and activities.

    Technical enhancements include optimized controls for mobile and gamepad, multilingual voice acting for the main storyline, and improved translation quality across all supported languages.
