Battle Chasers: Nightwar gets a huge update on PS4 and Xbox One

Battle Chasers: Nightwars just received a big update on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, have a look at all changes in detail below! 

Xbox One

General:
* X1X Support: 1800p in dungeon, 2160p in all other areas

New Features
* Added a feature to replay video cutscenes you’ve already scene in the game. From your save profile, go to Extras->Cutscenes
* New option added to the Options menus: Enable/disable Rumble

Balance:
* The entire cast of Battle Chasers has wised up, and have learned how to use equipment that was previously beyond their skill level. This means: equipment no longer requires a minimum level to equip! This will improve the leveling curve, and make leveling up benched characters a smoother experience. To keep the game balanced, equipment drops and vendor inventories have been slightly readjusted.
* The XP curve has been adjusted to alleviate stalling in mid-game dungeons.
* Early game enemies have become more dangerous.
* Several enemies in the game have had their abilities made more fair/balanced.
* The Innkeeper has revised his tax plan, and the cost of reviving your party has been adjusted to be more lenient for the low-leveled and more demanding of the high-leveled.
* New Game+ is harder. (Evil laugher)
* Knolan’s starting level should be 11.
* Innervating Mist has had its overcharge generation reduced slightly.

Performance
* World Map performance improved.
* Dramatically increased stability: you should be able to enjoy long extended playtimes without crashes!

Gameplay
* Completing a dungeon in Mythic mode also counts toward the Completing all dungeons on Legendary achievement.
* Airships now remain spawned on the World Map when they have been spawned prior from completing a dungeon.
* Players can now flee from Hunt bosses if they realize they’re in over their heads. You will flee back to the World Map when you try to escape from a Hunt encounter.
* Hunt Quests have had their levels adjusted slightly to give players better warning about their difficulty.
* Dungeons no longer magically uncomplete themselves when quitting to the Main Menu after completing them.
* Loot should not be assigned to empty bins if there is no loot.
* Fixed some of Monika’s abilities that were not critting properly.
* Garrison’s Rupture Ability will stop falling over after 3 turns and last its full 5 turns.
* Slimes no longer behave like molasses, but like gelatin. Thus, they play their animations much more quickly.
* We put a stop to the time travel occurring when quitting the game from a completed dungeon. Loading back in to the save will now progress to the next day.
* The boss the Dig in Mythic difficulty is now at its proper level.
* Fixed a bug that prevented perks from updating correctly when swapping equipment.

UI
* The UI has received a scale-up and contrast adjustments across the board, to make text more visible on screens of differing sizes and distances.
* Switching characters while viewing a Mastery perk will update the UI accordingly with the next character’s Mastery Perk.
* We added an entry for the highest difficulty completed for a dungeon in the Dungeon Codex.
* You will not get a Legendary Dungeon warning for a dungeon in progress.
* Skipping through the Combat Victory screens now appropriately skips the reveal animation for your loot so you can see it before you exit combat.
* You now get toasts for loot obtained when skipping the Combat Victory screen altogether.
* Incorrect/non-working button prompts in the Compendium, Game Manual and in Fishing have been fixed.
* In some cases the Compendium would flicker open and closed when you pressed your controller buttons just so. This has been fixed.
* The Bestiary Entry progress bar has been made less visually noisy.
* Minor UI fixes.

Localization
* Various minor fixes.

General Bug Fixes
* Added a fix that retroactively awards you the 100% Bestiary Completion achievement if it was not awarded to you properly on earning it.
* Players who were missing Caldeus’s skull and the Alpha Core despite having defeated the appropriate enemies should now be able to find them in their inventory.
* Players who defeated Bhargus but did not receive the Purgatory Stone should now find it in their inventory.
* Fishing lines have been polished.
* Fishing in general has been polished.
* Fix for hang when accessing the Tolkas Arena.
* Cinematic video sound is now tied to the Music volume in options, so you can keep the Voice high and better listen to dialogue over the music and sound effects.
