NTE Version 1.2 '999 Nights' launched on July 8, 2026. Unlike older preview articles, this page should now be read as a live-update summary: Shinku's banner, Warren Continent, the new main story, event rewards, and multiple system improvements are all active.

2. Shinku Is Live Now
Shinku is the Phase 1 limited character for Version 1.2, available from July 8 to July 29, 2026 at 05:59 (UTC+8). She fills a burst-DPS role and is especially attractive for players who want faster clears or stronger boss damage windows.
Most important takeaway for returning players: Shinku is not upcoming anymore — she is live right now.
3. New Story and Region
Version 1.2 adds the new story chapter Fighting with a Dragon and opens Warren Continent. So the patch value is not only about pulling characters. It also includes:
- Main story progression
- New exploration and collection content
- Region-linked event rewards
- Shinku bond, invitation, and message content
4. Rewards You Should Claim First

- 999 Nights event
- Shadow-n-Seek

6. Quality-of-Life and System Updates

Summary
Version 1.2 '999 Nights' is no longer a future patch — it is the active live version. The practical focus now is simple: decide whether Shinku fits your account, clear the reward-heavy event cycle, and finish the new Warren Continent content while the patch is live.
