Hi everyone,

Work is progressing well on the new update. So far, a second subway map has been added, along with Arcadi, a new ally. Arcadi is a former army officer, and will serve as the combat leader if Sam doesn't want the job. Arcadi is geared towards leadership and ranged combat, and his unique perk (Stand Fast) allows him to prevent an ally from being incapacitated once per battle.



The leadership mechanics have also been enhanced. Now, both player and criminal squads can have leaders, and losing a leader in battle imposes the "Ronin" negative status effect on the entire team. Additionally, 4 new perks have been added, 3 of which are specific to the leadership stat, including All Out Offensive, which increases party damage by 40% for one turn at a substantial AP cost to the leader, and Tactical Delay, which allows characters to delay their turns at no AP cost.

Here's the most recent development video, in case you'd like more detail on the changes:

Version 22 will be available in around 2 weeks, and we'll post another development video to cover the changes. If you'd like to maintain your save data when the game is updated, please have a look at this thread for more information.
