Phantom Abyss has today launched the Overturned update, so here’s the full list of changes and additions with this patch. This is a hefty patch, being the first major content update since Phantom Abyss was released two months ago. As such, while not featuring the highly-anticipated next stage, today’s update looks to bring more variety to the currently present stages. These come with a host of minor changes, so there’s plenty to go around today. Without further adieu, here’s everything that’s been changed with Phantom Abyss’s Overturned update.
Phantom Abyss Overturned Update Patch Notes
What’s New
- Adventurers can now explore 28 new rooms, including 7 new corridors and 21 new main rooms.
- Turn your adventure upside down in brand new treacherous rotating rooms scattered throughout perilous Ruins, precarious Caverns, and petrifying Inferno.
- Your Basic Whip received a Blessing, allowing you to keep the trusty tool by your side at the expense of others. Fear not, it will never be lost.
- Brand new connection retry prompts will now come up if your network connection fails, so you can restore it and retry without losing your (surely) impeccable run.
- Small trap doors now have a visual variation to show whether they are going to trigger on a timer or by proximity.
- You can now use your user sharing IDs in the portal menu. This will allow you to retrieve all active dungeons from your friends, so you can enjoy them without having to use individual codes.
- The Portal UI has been re-worked to be clearer and easier to use.
What’s Fixed
- Various back-end stability fixes
- Caverns and Inferno had their post-processing updated. They look so good now!
- Foliage for all packs was improved and occurs more frequently.
- Orb-key doors and relic room door symbols look so much better now it’s not even funny.
- You know that issue where the dead-end doors would have remained in the Ruins skin in Caverns or Inferno? Well, they don’t anymore. Instead, they look like big skull murals. You can’t miss them.
While it may not be the flashiest change in the Overturned update, being able to reconnect to caverns you’ve lost connection to in Phantom Abyss is huge for me. With the game having rough network issues from time to time, plus my own internet’s faults, this update, helps a lot to improve stability. And of course, having new rooms helps improve variety a lot. All around, quite pleased with what’s been changed.
