Anime Vanguards' Winter Update 3.0: A Festive Feast of Content
Roblox developer Kitawari has unleashed Anime Vanguards Winter Update 3.0, a significant update boasting a revamped lobby, a fresh unit roster, and numerous quality-of-life improvements. This update promises weeks of winter-themed fun.
The most striking change is the completely overhauled lobby, providing significantly more space for players. This is complemented by a remastered UI, including a cleaner, more intuitive stage selection interface. As Kitawari explains in the patch notes, the previous lobby was too cramped, hindering the addition of new game modes. The new lobby boasts a customizable day/night cycle accessible in the settings menu.
Key additions include:
- New Game Modes: "Portals," a mode encouraging the use of winter units and skins for enhanced rewards, and "Sandbox Mode," allowing unrestricted strategic experimentation.
- 12 New Units: These are distributed across a new Winter Banner, the Portals game mode, the battle pass, and leaderboard rewards.
- Quality-of-Life Improvements: These include smoother unit placement, improved UI search functionality for skins and familiars, clearer enemy targeting indicators, and the relocation of Evolution Quests to a dedicated tab.
This update builds upon the November update, which introduced content inspired by the anime Dandadan. For more information, including active codes, visit here.
