Bless Unleashed Playtest - sihoback
First, we would like to thank everyone for their interest in the upcoming Bless Unleashed PC Final Test happening from May 12th - May 16th (PDT) / May 13th - May 17th (CEST).
Today, we’ll be visually diving into the main update topics that users can experience during the Final Test.
Keep on reading to check out the updates below!
Moreover, please note that anyone can participate in the upcoming Final Test through the Steam Playtest function, so please head on over to the Final Test participation guide for further details.
[Bless Unleashed PC Final Test Participation Guide]
Let’s get started!
The development team is constantly working to provide a more unique and dynamic combat experience depending on the skills of each class and blessings, while providing a fundamental change in the combat system.
As mentioned in the previous posts, through this update, each blessing will have a unique combat mechanism, and character operation will differ based on the equipped blessings. Moreover, skills can be acquired through character level regardless of blessings. Users can expect an updated combat system through the diverse combination of skills and combos.
The updated blessings will each have unique buffs that can be strengthened as the level increases.
Through this update, the combo phase will not break even when using dodge in the midst of a combo. This change will be applied equally to specific skills, and we believe users will be able to experience an even smoother combat flow than before.
Because Bless Unleashed PC was developed based on a console service, we felt a need to further improve the operational convenience to be better suited for PC users using the keyboard and mouse.
For example, users previously had to use both the keyboard and mouse when navigating through the menu. Through this update, the menu has been improved so that the majority of operation can be done with just the mouse. We plan to further improve PC optimization by allowing more operations to be done with the use of the mouse.

In addition, the Hold (long press) operation has been further improved. We recognized that using the mouse for the Hold operation was extremely inconvenient in the PC environment, and although it is difficult to delete the Hold operation entirely, we are working to improve this operation in the following ways.

We are also constantly working to improve the UI/UX. For example, a translucent map function will be added so users can easily check the map while on the go. Furthermore, although previously it was difficult to check the tooltip when the icons were overlaid on the world map, this issue has been improved by the addition of a new button as shown below.

Through this update, Twisted Field Bosses that are similar in appearance to the regular Bosses but have stronger and different patterns have been added. Additional effects such as debuff and area damage are added making the Bosses much more difficult to defeat as well as summoning minions to create a confusing combat experience.
These Twisted Bosses appear with a very low probability in the same location as the regular Field Bosses, and if not cleared for a certain period of time, disappear with the reappearance of the existing Bosses. Clear these Bosses to receive even better rewards!
Please refer to the images and GIFs below to see the upcoming Twisted Field Bosses users can meet during the Final Test.

Like the presence of the powerful Twisted Field Bosses, existing Elite Monsters have also been updated with special attack patterns and stronger powers. These Field Elite Monsters with various attack patterns will create a more dynamic and fun combat experience. In addition, we believe that the combination of the updated skills and combos will create an even better synergy during combat.

Before #2. Rapid camera change according to the movement of the lock-on target

After observing these inconveniences, the lock-on function has been improved so the camera is more stable during the movement of the lock-on target.
Users can check out this improved lock-on function during the Final Test and undergo a better combat experience.
We hope you enjoyed today’s post!
Please note that these are just a few of the many changes and improvements to come, and you can directly experience these changes during the Final Test from May 12th - May 16th (PDT) / May 13th - May 17th (CEST).
