Exciting news for fans of *Reverse: 1999*—Version 2.5, titled “Showdown in Chinatown,” has officially launched, bringing with it a fresh wave of content inspired by the golden age of Hong Kong cinema. This update marks part one of the 2.5 release and introduces not only new characters but also events, garments, and gameplay mechanics designed to enhance your journey through the arcane world.
New Characters Arrive
At the heart of this update are two standout additions: Liang Yue and Loggerhead. Liang Yue is a limited-time character who joins the fray as part of the "Moonbeam Guardian" Dushuo Limited Banner. She’s set to play a pivotal role in the unfolding narrative involving Nightpiercer, an arcanist criminal stirring up trouble once again in Los Angeles. Liang Yue’s mission? To assist the Division of Arcane Affairs under the watchful eye of the Vigiles Bureau and finally put an end to Nightpiercer’s schemes.
In addition to Liang Yue, players can welcome Loggerhead—a powerful five-star character ready to bolster any roster. With both characters now available, it’s the perfect time to refresh your team composition and dive into the new story arcs.
Limited Garments & Exclusive Rewards
As part of the update, all players will receive a free garment for the beloved character Windsong, adding a stylish touch to your collection. But that’s not all—there’s also a brand-new garment series called “Old Stories, New Perspectives” now available for several fan-favorite characters including Jiu Niangzi, Tuesday, Sotheby, The Fool, and Windsong.
Engaging Events & Challenges
Players looking for action won’t be disappointed. Two exciting new challenges have been introduced: “When the Alarm Sounds” and the board game-themed “Critter Crash.” Both offer unique gameplay experiences and generous rewards such as Limited Portraits and exclusive garments. These events will remain active until the 29th, giving you a limited window to collect everything on offer.
Red Envelope Mini-Game
A new limited-time building mechanic has also been added, where players can collect Red Envelopes by completing tasks and participating in minigames. These envelopes can then be exchanged for valuable items, including 5-star insight coupons, portraits, and essential growth materials.
Free Pulls & More Opportunities
For those aiming to pull for Liang Yue or other top-tier characters, the game offers up to 40 free pulls through login rewards and event participation. It’s a great opportunity to expand your roster without spending extra resources.
