2025 remainder Livestream Roadmap summary (unofficial):
한국어로 진행됩니다. 韓国語で実施されます。The livestream will be in Korean.
Apologies if Mr Director's head is in frame for some of the screenshots, it is very large.
Mirror Dungeon 6:
Alongside the new Abnormalities and EGO Gifts that are presumed to be coming with the next Mirror Dungeon, the Mirror of Immortality will be gaining a new UI, alongside changes to Starlight and will allow Rental Units (preset)
Like the past MD, this will be released over a series of 3-4 Weeks.
Starlight Accumulates rather than being a static max of 120 based on rest bonus for starting Cost and bonus, we can now gain more over time and spend it on the above listed (Not Resets they remain being Cost rather than Starlight)
New EGO gifts will be added regularly
and there will be universal EGO gifts added alongside new packs, not only limited EGO gifts such as those for Intervallo and Bokgak packs.
Walpurgisnacht:
Brightened image of the Don Teaser
We are able to see the Central Control Team armband on Don so we know that she will indeed be an ID.
2 ID and One EGO will be releasing this Walpurgisnacht.
in the following Walpurgisnacht, we will be once again having a Ruina Guest theme, which seems to confirm the pattern of alternating games.
Real Life things:
HHPP: An animation regarding the finale of Library of Ruina, and merchandise related to it were revealed
From the 24th June to 5th October, HHPP will be themed around the finale of Library of Ruina
Following the Ruina theme, beginning in later October, for the remainder of the year HHPP will be Mili Themed
Food and Drink items based on Mili Songs (eg. Painful Death for the Lactose Intolerant (Or at least I hope they make this one)) Mili Merchandise and HHPP crossover merchandise will be available As the theme begins a bit before the Mili Concert (see below), there will be items related to it as such; "Practical, usable utensil merch", whatever that means.
Mili:
Mili Concert MILI CONCERT MILI CONCERT
The venue will be a rough capacity of 1800 - 2000 people, and there will be a simulticast online to watch.
The date will be the 2025/11/8 (YYYY/MM/DD)
Intervallo Rerun(s):
Time Killing Time:
1 EGO and 1 ID will be released alongside the announcer for Hubert More chances for Everlasting ID or Inertia
Murder on the WARP Express:
2 (somethings) will be released in this intervallo rerun. We know that we will get an announcer for the Warp PA. If Cassette Tape gets an ID I will be happy
Hongle:
Spoilers for canto 8 kind of because thats how PM goes about it:
This is the only image we have seen. Currently the ID is being planned out somewhat: It will be able to make free use of Heishou IDs that are in support (reinforcement chain) positions
Canto 8.5:
this intervallo will largely be focused around Xichun (and sinclair) taking classes on how to become a Hierarch(ess) proper, but this intervallo is still in development. Wei ID will presumably be Yi Sang due to his appearance in the Ishmael ID
Arknights Collaboration:
1 announcer and 4 EGO (sinners as previously revealed: Faust, Hong Lou, Ishmael and Gregor.) this will be the first true limited banner so save your lunacy
(my personal money is on Faust being Kal'tsit or Amiya or Priestess, Hongle gives Kroos Vibes with the same eye connection, Ishmael Skadii? and Gregor Patriot or something)
The Unsevering:
Canto 9 name revealed
The release target is late this year, roughly around Christmas I can assume. Refraction Railway 6 will be skipped to make time for this release target.
If, later in the year, canto 9 release target is infeasible, RR6 and a second intervallo will be made.
Quality of Life and other features:
Various UI changes for teambuilding.
A non sinner specific EGO and ID selection. Cleaner appearance, all/owned toggle selection, and favorite ID marks for teambuilding. (image 1, top right), EGO resource has been made more readable and teams may now have custom names (Top centre first image)
Enemy readability:
less reading comprehension is required moving forward (not meant condescendingly), various attacks and passives will be marked as seen in the image(s) for clearer priority and ease of play
Lore Accuracy:
Lore accuracy game mechanic. By spending Lunacy, you may revive all sinners mid battle.
No EX rewards will be granted if the revive feature is used. If the fight in question is later nerfed (eg. Final bosses, dungeons, overtuned fights), all lunacy used will be refunded.
Cosmetic ID "Skins":
Due to the process of accounting for differing skill effects, animations, and coin counts, the ID skin system is still in development. They say that we will be able to use a semi global system for the ID skins, so maybe we finally realise the Ideal goal since launch of 12 Fucking Yi Sang.
Game File Optimisation:
While the company does not plan to change how battle animations function, they will be attempting to minimise the file size
Regularly available content and gamemodes:
to encourage players to play, and collect new ID//EGO, the company is planning on adding a new gamemode, one that allows the player to challenge their skills, but on a more permanent basis compared to Refraction Railway
More information will be revealed in future presumably. Potential for threadspinning 5 also mentioned (for EGO)
Project Moon (as a company) moving forward:
Company expansion:
The company will not be expanding more than its current size for the foreseeable future.
Various reasons have been given: the Director's lack of management ability and mental fortitude to handle a larger company. Interpersonal relationship stress (as seen before, stating that he didn't want to start seeing employees as numbers)
While the current office of PM/HHPP is a limiting factor, it is largely due to the Director's lack of confidence and preparation in managing anything larger. the current projection is that in two years time, when the company office is finished construction, the Director will be more capable and experienced in leading teams and managing, and will be able to expand the company further then.
The Director hopes to maintain a friendly and smooth working environment.
Direction:
The game has grown significantly larger than the company had ever expected. While this is naturally a good prospect, the company wishes to remain focused largely on creating Limbus as planned, in a reasonable time frame and size, rather than chasing MAU/DAU and sales.
The goal remains at the company to tell the story of the city from beginning to end. As of current, though unfortunate, they are unable to take advantage of this sudden uptake in popularity.
the following section is a quote from the livestream itself:
When I started this company it was to give myself meaning and a sense of doing something worthwhile, and that hasn't changed now (a platform for fulfilling the CEO's self-realisation)
(Q):When Do I feel that sense of "meaning" and "doing something worthwhile"? (A): When we manage to release a story we want to tell in a somewhat satisfactory manner;when our players enjoy said story; and when in the process of making that content, the team remains non-hostile with each other in both speech and manners, when the team does not feel a sense of doubt about their work I don't want to be afraid of going into work.
I understand that some may step away or feel disappointed by our limited development capacity and slower updates. But even if you were to leave, we'll still be here, just as we are now, waiting for your return with the stories and content we've been cooking up... Like that old, familiar, hole in the wall that you've always known and loved. We'll be sure to prepare a backlog of good stories for you to enjoy upon your return after a brief beak.
End quote.
Employee Privacy:
While the Director himself has given permission to use any images of his face/person as you see fit (Eg. memes), please refrain from using or posting any photographs of employees due to privacy concerns, and as some may no longer be working at the company.
See below, depictions of the Director.
Employee next to director? no. Director? yes.
If photos of employees are taken, used or distributed, legal action may be taken to protect their privacy.
APR 2025(Not part of the livestream):
Absolute Pride Resonance has raised 5400$ for charity. Check out the various (actually affiliated) content creators and artists alongside the stretch goals//donation thresholds.
While I am not a part of it I am thinking of doing something for if the 10'000 goal is reached (halfway there)
