Update details
Nine Chronicles is set to enhance its gameplay with the v200450 update on June 25 at 11:00 AM KST, allowing players to extend their journey beyond Stage 500. This update is crucial for maintaining the game’s momentum as it continues to deliver new content and gameplay experiences to its community.
New stages and gear
The highlight of this update is the addition of 30 new stages, extending the game world from 471 to 500. These stages serve a purpose beyond entertainment; they provide materials necessary for crafting new Transcendence equipment. Both the Sweep feature and Crystal rewards will be available in this new range, ensuring efficiency in grinding.
Transcendence equipment
The new Grade 8 Transcendence equipment adds depth to the game’s gear system. Each element—Land, Wind, and Normal—now has a complete set, including Weapon, Armor, Belt, Necklace, and Ring. Each piece features its own crafting recipe and active skill, encouraging strategic choices from players. Materials collected in the new stages will feed directly into crafting these items.
Collections and character growth
This update includes new collections linked to the Transcendence equipment, offering completionists additional goals. Players can also gather new materials like Emerald Dust, Sapphire Dust, and Golden Meat to boost core attributes such as ATK, HP, DEF, HIT, and SPD. This creates a material-driven path for advancement, rewarding players who explore the new content with lasting character improvements.
Game background
Developed by Planetarium, Nine Chronicles is a decentralized idle RPG running entirely on its own blockchain. The game’s economy and state are governed through community proposals, enabling players to craft equipment, face World Bosses, and compete in the Arena, all while maintaining an on-chain presence.
Multiplanetary ecosystem
The game’s unique structure utilizes a Multiplanetary network, consisting of independent chains like Odin and Heimdall, designed to manage transaction loads and ensure fair play for newcomers. The Nine Chronicles Universe extends beyond the core game, integrating collaborations, new runes, and event dungeons.
Roadmap consistency
The v200450 update fits into Nine Chronicles’ rapid release cycle, following recent patches that expanded difficult content and Grade 8 gear. Each update typically delivers paired new stages and equipment, reflecting the game’s commitment to community feedback and on-chain governance.
Endgame goals
With the new stages and equipment launching soon, players will focus on collecting materials to craft their Transcendence sets. This update will encourage both immediate and long-term goals, inviting players to further explore what Nine Chronicles has to offer.
“Players can begin forging their path beyond Stage 500 the moment the servers come back up,” a Nine Chronicles representative said.
