\"First<\/a><\/p>\n

Free-to-play open world game NTE\u2019s<\/a> first major update is coming 3rd June, and here\u2019s the biggest news: you\u2019ll be able to mute irritating otter Taygedo if you, like me, are sick of his sh*t.<\/p>\n

Chinese dev Hotta probably got a lot of feedback about this particularly irritating critter, and so moving forward you won\u2019t need to hear his repetitive voice lines. Thank god for that!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Obviously this update has a lot more meaningful stuff to it, including the title\u2019s previously announced Porsche collaboration. You\u2019ll be able to unlock the Porsche 918 Spyder and a themed outfit for protagonist Zero as part of a new gacha, which will accept either Annulith or Fons.<\/p>\n

A new location named Sunward Island will be added as part of the update, as well as a new story mission named the Dreamwalk Corridor. This will feature the previously teased antagonist faction The Scarlet Letter, so we\u2019ll be learning a lot more about the world of Heathereau at large.<\/p>\n

In addition, two new playable characters will debut: Lacrimosa and Chaos. Both have new costumes and open world activities attached to them, with the former having a whopping five outfits alone.<\/p>\n

Hotta is also adding some new gameplay features and activities, like a functioning in-game social media feed, where you\u2019ll be able to share your own photos and receive likes, just like real-life Instagram.<\/p>\n

Similarly, a new Mario Kart<\/a>-style combat racing mode named the Underground Circuit as well as an online fighting minigame called Fight Club will debut. You\u2019ll be able to play these online.<\/p>\n

Various other events and activities will cycle in and out throughout the entirety of v1.1, including double rewards, free pulls, and more.<\/p>\n

In addition to a slew of different bug fixes and gameplay optimisations, the studio says it\u2019s also improving the controller experience, so hopefully things feel a lot better on the DualSense once the update drops.<\/p>\n
