October 20 Version Patch Notes

Virtual Test: Interference — Carriers Reporting for Duty!

Event Time: 10/20 after server maintenance – 10/27 after server maintenance

Virtual Test: Interference progresses, and we see a huge breakthrough in capital ship technology. After the server maintenance on 10/20, four new carriers will debut in Virtual Test: Interference: Chimera, Nidhoggur, Archon, and Thanatos.

Pilots will be able to choose to pilot these four carriers in Virtual Test: Interference battles and try out the unique carrier fighter mechanic, which will no doubt introduce players to some thrilling combat between carriers.

Check the in-game event rules for more details.

Every time the event reaches a new stage, all pilots will receive great rewards. All unlocked rewards will remain claimable until 11/11 at 00:00 UTC+0.
