The first update comes just over a month since the game originally launched on June 10. We praised the game highly in our review, stating that it “is a masterclass in competitive game design,” giving it a 9/10. The game was also a reasonable commercial success, spending a month in the UK Chart top ten before being dropped by the KLONOA Phantasy Reverie Series.
