Full Game Content
1. Fully Expanded Character Roster | Exclusive DLC New Character
Initially launching with 3 characters in Early Access, the official version expands the playable roster to 5. Players start with the hit-and-run character, Taisuke, and will gradually unlock the remaining protagonists after clearing specific stages. Each character possesses distinct personalities and wildly varying combat styles, featuring a parry-and-dodge tank lolita, a hacker girl capable of both healing and unleashing bullet-hell barrages, a long-range dual-pistol sharpshooter, and more.
Simultaneously, the paid DLC Eisa Character Expansion Pack will be released to unlock the 6th unique character, Eisa, introducing a brand-new operational playstyle to the game.

2. Complete Storyline & Friend Co-op, Challenge Diverse Match Modes at Will
The update introduces all 6 chapters of the complete main story, unlocking the full storyline of the Celpolis Breaking Show tournaments. While guaranteeing a premium single-player experience, the update officially implements the P2P Friend Match gameplay. This includes co-op modes such as The Trials and the late-game long-term looter mode, Touring Match. The game's narrative unfolds as the difficulty scaling rises, unlocking new enemies and bosses along the way — perfectly balancing single-player story immersion with the thrilling fun of multiplayer team progression.
3. Fully Expanded Build & Development Systems | Freely Craft Endless Combat Playstyles
The game expands and optimizes 155 Drivers and 115 sets of Relic combinations alongside numerical balancing adjustments. A grand total of 178 pieces of Cyberware equipment with diverse functionalities are now available, revolutionizing the Cyberware Merge and Assemble gameplay.
In the meantime, permanent progression metrics like out-of-run Development and Weapon Modification have been finely tuned, unlocking infinite combination possibilities and delivering a more challenging, immersive Roguelite building experience.
Core Game Features
The Ultimate Cyberspace Reality Show: Set on the grand stage of Breaking Show — a city-wide competitive reality TV show in the futuristic metropolis of Celpolis — players step into the shoes of contestants. While surviving matches using in-game builds, players can also upgrade their Operating System, modify weapons, and equip Cyberware out of matches to substantially boost their characters' combat stats.
Featuring a unique cyberpunk visual style that blends glitch art, street graffiti, and pop art, the game's core highlight centers around its live-stream broadcast design — spectacular combat performances earn Likes from the audience, which can then be spent on in-game buffs. Meanwhile, environmental elements like sewers, manhole covers, building cover, and even passing hauler trucks can become fatal traps or tactical assets at any moment, shifting the tide of battle. Every run delivers a perfect blend of satisfying mechanical execution and strategic randomness.
Drivers and Relics form the core of in-game builds. Five match Sponsors provide players with unique Drivers. The gameplay core revolves around strategically selecting these Drivers, combining different factions in specific quantities to synthesize various powerful Fusion Drivers that massively spike your combat potential. Meanwhile, Relics — which directly boost stats, enhance survivability, or trigger synergy effects when paired with Drivers — can be acquired through specific stages or Random Events.
Beyond the matches, the game's out-of-run progression system is a major draw for players. The Development system includes the Operating System, Weapon Modification, and Cyberware Weaponizing. Buffs from this system are permanently active, empowering players to tackle higher-difficulty matches or drastically shorten match clear times. Paired with the Cyberware Merge and Assemble mechanics, players can freely craft diverse combat playstyles.
