BreathBound Update Announcement | Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!（20260924）
Hello everyone! Xiao Jiangjiang is here.
The Mid-Autumn Festival holiday is here! It’s time to admire the moon, enjoy some mooncakes, and—most importantly—keep your breathing under control while playing with your teammates.
To celebrate the holiday, we’ve released a small update focused on improving the Breath Sharing mechanic, breathing animations, and graphics settings, along with fixes for several issues affecting the gameplay experience.
##Breath Sharing
- Added a new Breath Sharing mechanic between characters.
- Added bamboo tubes and related Breath Sharing interactions.
- Added four bamboo tubes to the Old Mansion.
##Breathing and Character Animations
- Improved breath-holding and mouth-covering animations.
- Added clearer animation feedback during breath recovery and heavy breathing.
##Graphics and Settings
- Added a frame-rate limit setting.
- Improved how brightness settings are saved and applied.
##Interaction and Item Fixes
- Fixed an issue that could cause items to spawn in incorrect positions on multi-level shelves.
- Fixed an issue where items could gradually move upward and eventually become attached to the shelf above.
- Improved the logic used to validate item spawn positions.
Following this update, players can share breath with their teammates directly or use bamboo tubes for new cooperative interactions. New Breath Sharing items have been quietly placed throughout the Old Mansion, waiting to be discovered!
We have also refined character animations for breath-holding, breath recovery, and heavy breathing to provide clearer feedback during tense moments. Graphics settings and several item interactions have also been improved for a smoother and more immersive experience.
If you encounter any issues involving bamboo-tube Breath Sharing, two-player interactions, multiplayer synchronization, or graphics settings after the update, please let us know through our community channels. Your friendly support zombie will carefully log every report before heading over to the development team and ringing the bell until it gets addressed. This time, we won’t let any problems sneak onto the top shelf! 📋
Finally, we wish everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival! May your mooncakes be delicious, your teamwork flawless, and your Breath Sharing successful on this night of reunion. Most importantly, don’t let the Corpse King interrupt your moon-viewing! 🔔
