"Reverse: 1999 Unveils 1.5th Anniversary and Version 2.5 Details in Livestream"

Fans of the time-twisting RPG Reverse: 1999 have a lot to look forward to with an upcoming livestream scheduled for April 18th. This event promises to unveil exciting new content for the game's 1.5th anniversary, alongside a sneak peek at version 2.5, aptly named 'Showdown in Chinatown'. This will be the first comprehensive reveal of what players can expect from the upcoming update.

The livestream will be hosted by in-game characters Captain Regulus and the newly introduced Officer Liang Yue, both appearing in charming chibi form. Attendees can also look forward to giveaways, including redeemable codes, and the chance to win a coveted Nintendo Switch 2 through a competition.

For those familiar with the Chinese version of the game, 'Showdown in Chinatown' might ring a bell. This update is set to pay homage to the iconic Hong Kong martial arts movies, weaving a dramatic crime thriller narrative around the pursuit of an arcanist vigilante. The storyline is expected to resonate deeply with fans of the Shaw Brothers and John Woo.

In terms of characters, Officer Liang Yue is poised to take center stage with her array of martial arts skills, infiltrating the movie set of another new character, Noire. Noire, a wheelchair-bound, perfectionist director, utilizes her unique ability to manipulate her ideal actors as puppets in combat. Adding to the mix is Loggerhead, a character with a camera for a head, set to make a memorable appearance.

While the exact content for international versions of Reverse: 1999 will be clarified during the livestream, fans can anticipate plenty of nods to classic Hong Kong cinema in version 2.5.
