If you've been eagerly anticipating Reverse: 1999's Hong Kong cinema-inspired Showdown in Chinatown update for version 2.5, the wait is officially over! Version 2.5, part one, is now live and brings with it exciting new content, including both limited and five-star characters.

In Showdown in Chinatown, the notorious arcanist criminal Nightpiercer reemerges in Los Angeles. Officer Liang Yue, assigned by the Vigiles Bureau, teams up with the Division of Arcane Affairs to take down Nightpiercer once and for all. Liang Yue is available as part of the limited-time "Moonbeam Guardian" Dushuo Limited Banner, and all players can enjoy a free garment for the fan-favorite character, Windsong. If you're aiming to add these and other top characters to your roster, you'll be pleased to know that there are 40 free pulls available through various rewards and events.

Two new challenges await with special rewards: When the Alarm Sounds and the board game-themed Critter Crash, both available until the 29th. These events offer everything from Limited Portraits to new garments.

Liang Yue's traditional Chinese-style dress is inspiring a new garment series called Old Stories New Perspectives, available for characters Jiu Niangzi, Tuesday, Sotheby, The Fool, and Windsong.

Keep an eye out for the new limited building where you can collect Red Envelopes through tasks and minigames. These can be swapped for rewards, including 5-star insight coupons, portraits, and growth materials.
