Neverness to Everness 1.1 Launched — Everything to Do First

Neverness to Everness Version 1.1 "Dreamwalk Corridor" went live on June 3, 2026 — and it's the most content-packed update since global launch. Lacrimosa is now pullable, Sunward Island is open, the Porsche 918 Spyder is hitting the streets of Hethereau, and there are new game modes to grind. Here's the complete Day-One survival guide for Appraisers diving into 1.1 right now.

🌅 What's Live Right Now

NTE 1.1 went live on June 3, 2026 after a 6:00 – 9:00 AM UTC+8 maintenance window. Everything previewed during the May 23 Special Program is now playable, and Appraisers across all regions have access to the full content suite. The patch is the first major content update since global launch on April 29, and Hotta Studio packed it with new characters, new locations, new game modes, and a major brand collaboration.

✨ Lacrimosa — Limited S-Class on Fading Reverie

The headline pull of Version 1.1 is Lacrimosa, the limited S-Class Chaos / Liquid Arc main DPS who has been teased since the tutorial cutscene at global launch. Her banner — Fading Reverie — opened June 3 and runs until June 24, 2026. After that window closes, Lacrimosa will not return as a featured character until a future rerun, and Hotta Studio hasn't committed to a rerun timeline.

Her signature weapon The Last Rose is available on the Nocturne Special weapon banner running alongside her character banner. The weapon provides significant CRIT DMG while Lacrimosa is applying DoT damage to an enemy, and its passive extends the broken state of enemies that get hit — a meaningful uptime increase for Discord reaction setups.

One important note for new Appraisers: NTE uses a no-50/50 banner system with pity carryover between banners. Every Riftcrystal you saved on Hotori's Misty Tipsy Style banner carries directly into Lacrimosa's pull pool. If you were close to pity before June 3, you're close to pity now.

🌪️ Chaos — Phase 2 Confirmed for June 24

The second limited S-Class of Version 1.1, Chaos, opens his banner — Forsaken Path — on June 24, 2026, immediately after Lacrimosa's window closes. His weapon banner, Pursuit Special, runs alongside. The Chaos window is shorter than Lacrimosa's — only two weeks, closing on July 8, 2026 — so plan your pulls early if you want both characters.

Chaos brings new mechanics to the Lakshana system and synergizes with specific existing characters in the roster. Full kit details will become clearer as Phase 2 approaches and community theorycrafting refines team comps, but the general direction is a meaningful Lakshana enabler rather than a pure damage carry.

🏝️ Sunward Island — The New Open World

Sunward Island is now open for exploration. The new summer-themed coastal area is NTE's first biome shift since launch — where Hethereau is a supernatural metropolitan city, Sunward Island is warm, open coastline designed for exploration with NTE's vehicle and travel systems. Expect New World bosses, treasure chests, gathering nodes, and story quests tied to the Dreamwalk Corridor narrative.

The island is the primary location for the new story episode and the Porsche collab content. Make exploration a Day-One priority — early Appraisers will find chests and resource nodes still untapped before the community grids the map.

🌀 Dreamwalk Corridor + Corridor of Echoes

The new story episode Dreamwalk Corridor is live, advancing the main narrative with content tied directly to Lacrimosa's story arc. The episode unlocks through the main quest menu after meeting prerequisite story progress from Version 1.0. Clear it in your first session — story rewards include Annulith, materials, and unlocks for the broader 1.1 content.

The Corridor of Echoes is the anomalous location tied to the Dreamwalk Corridor narrative. It's a dreamlike environment with new enemy types and mechanics that don't appear elsewhere in the game, designed as a destination tier for endgame Appraisers seeking new challenges. The Debt Collector boss can now be fought as an Anomaly Pilgrimage encounter — one of the higher-difficulty new endgame challenges.

🚗 Porsche 918 Spyder — Everdriving Mystery Box Collab

The Porsche collaboration is now live as the Everdriving Mystery Box event. The Porsche 918 Spyder — one of the most iconic hypercars ever produced — is obtainable through the event, along with a themed Appraiser outfit and a new property. NTE's vehicle system has always been a standout feature, and the 918 Spyder fits Hethereau's high-tech supernatural aesthetic perfectly.

Specific obtaining requirements include event currency from completing collab-themed activities. Sunward Island's coastal roads are the showcase environment — driving the 918 Spyder along the island is exactly the experience the collab is designed to deliver.

🏙️ New Game Modes — Fight Club, Underground Circuit, What's Baking

Three new gameplay modes launched alongside the patch:

Fight Club — A stamina-based combat activity that becomes available after defeating Tornado, the leader of the Tornado Gang. Playable solo or via matchmaking with up to four players. Higher difficulty brackets yield better material drops.

Underground Circuit — Racing with combat. Vehicles entering the Underground Circuit are loaded with weapons that both the driver and passenger can use against other racers. The mode injects PvP-style combat into NTE's vehicle system. The Porsche 918 Spyder is especially well-suited to showcasing what Underground Circuit looks like at its competitive peak.

What's Baking — A social event featuring the newly upgraded Bagel App, where Appraisers can share in-game photos with the community. Casual, social, and reward-rich for low-effort participation.

📋 Day-One Priorities — What to Do First

1. Claim maintenance compensation — Hotta Studio sent Annulith and Crystal Solvents to your mail for the maintenance window. Claim before the mail expires (usually 30 days).
2. Redeem active codes — Five codes are live right now (see our dedicated codes article). Redeem before they expire.
3. Complete the Dreamwalk Corridor story episode — Story rewards include Annulith and unlock prerequisites for the broader 1.1 content. Don't skip the cutscenes — the narrative is meaningful.
4. Decide on Lacrimosa now — Her banner is the entire patch cycle's biggest pull decision. Determine your Riftcrystal budget and whether Chaos in Phase 2 needs saving instead.
5. Explore Sunward Island — Day-one Appraisers find chests and resource nodes the community hasn't gridded yet. Map exploration in the first 48 hours yields the most efficient resource gain.
6. Try every new game mode — Fight Club, Underground Circuit, and What's Baking all have first-completion rewards. Even casual participation pays off.
7. Plan your Porsche collab progress — The Everdriving Mystery Box event has a defined window. Map the milestones and complete activities daily to avoid missing the 918 Spyder.

💎 Pull Strategy — Lacrimosa vs Saving for Chaos

With two limited S-Class characters back-to-back across the same patch cycle, pull prioritization matters more in 1.1 than in any version since launch:

• Pull Lacrimosa if you need a Chaos main DPS, want a strong DoT team carry, or already have core Liquid Arc supports built (Daffodill, Sakiri, Haniel make her excel)
• Save for Chaos if Lacrimosa's kit doesn't fit your current team needs or if Lakshana-focused team building appeals to you more
• Pull both if you've been hoarding Riftcrystal since launch — both characters can be obtained with enough saved currency and disciplined pulling

Remember: pity carries over, so if you don't hit a guaranteed pull on Lacrimosa, your pity counter continues building during Chaos's banner — making Chaos progressively easier to secure even after partial Lacrimosa pulls.
