New Features Make Dungeon Exploration More Enjoyable
For a smoother and more enjoyable experience, this latest installment of Shiren the Wanderer provides a range of player-friendly features so players can fully immerse themselves in the game world. Track your own steps on a mini-map, assign up to four projectiles and magic Staves to a hotbar for easy access, and "Handy Dash" to move quickly and easily throughout the dungeon.
Enhanced Live Display Mode
Enhanced Live Display Mode neatly presents information, such as character stats and inventory, on a single screen—perfect for streaming gameplay. Players can see details like Runes on Weapons and Shields and the items stored in Pots. Choose from two screen options to best suit your needs: a standard view with all essential information, and a simplified view.
New Rescue Options: Aid and Rescue Self
Rescue allows players to save other players who have collapsed in a dungeon, or to be rescued by others when they themselves have collapsed. If the rescue is successful, the fallen player can resume play without losing any belongings or Gitan (money). On a single dungeon challenge, players can issue up to three rescue requests. Additionally, the room where the rescued player is found will be turned into a monster house, where a number of monsters will appear.*
Share Data with Other Players Using Parallel Play
Parallel Play is a feature that allows players to upload saved data (parallel data) created at any point during a dungeon adventure to the server, enabling other players to continue the challenge. By uploading the created parallel data to the server and sharing the issued Parallel ID, other players can challenge the dungeon under the same circumstances and conditions, providing a fairer way to compete. In addition, since parallel data can be created and shared even in the middle of Parallel Play, multiple players can enjoy a relay-style dungeon adventure. Please note that even if you clear a dungeon in Parallel Play, you cannot bring back the items and Gitan obtained.*
*There are dungeons where rescue requests cannot be issued. For more details about Rescue and Parallel Play features, visit the official Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island site at: https://www.spike-chunsoft.co.jp/shiren6/en/
