  • About 30 species of small animals can now be registered as pets, with new pick-up and put-down animations added to deepen customization and immersion.
  • The update also adds new skills for Oongka and Damiane and fixes a wide range of issues across combat, UI, farming, graphics, audio and crashes on PC and Mac.
  • Pearl Abyss has been iterating steadily since March, when it began addressing criticism of the game's keyboard-and-mouse controls after launch.
