Setting Out in Pursuit of the Wind: Part I
The 1.1 update is the one that brings Aniimo to phones: the servers close on 23 September from 00:00 to 10:00 (UTC+8), then the game comes back on every platform at once. Everything it adds is below, in the order you will meet it, and every name leads to the page of the site that goes deeper.
The 1.1 calendar at a glance
Every lane opens the page that covers it. Days are server days: each server turns them over at 04:00 on its own clock, and the Events page shows the exact hour for yours.
Maintenance, mobile, and 500 Glimmer for everyone
In Paris that is 18:00 on 22 September to 04:00 on the 23rd. When the servers are back, restart the game so it pulls the new build. On phones, 1.1 is the launch itself: pre-download opened on 22 September, and the download guide covers the stores and the requirements.
Log in with the same account on mobile and on PC or console. Once per account.

Progress is shared across every platform within one server, and servers are independent of each other. Pick the server you already play on before your first mobile login.
Legendary Journey: the Irisalis stage opens on 25 September
The notice calls this stage Windchaser's Departure; in the game it is the next chapter of Legendary Journey: Departure with the Wind, with a new, weekly-limited source of Irisalis Petals.
1Irisalis Petalsa new weekly-limited source
2Legendary Aniipod: Irisaliscrafted from 99 petals
3Rift SpaceTwine with her: Blessing Gifts and her exclusive Transmog
4Legendary Aniipod: Windchase Departure100% capturePerfectSparkling49 petals each, once her pod is crafted
The game’s own text for the last pod: “When used, catching an Aniimo is guaranteed to succeed, its Potential is Perfect, and it will always be Sparkling”, and the notice adds exclusive seasonal perks. It is the strongest item the season has shown so far: pick the Aniimo that deserves it before spending one. How Potential and Sparkling work is in Perfect your Aniimo; the Legendary pod and the rift are on Legendary capture, and Transmog has every set Irisalis can wear.
Two modes: Holo-Battle Interlink and Egg Heist Chaos Mode
Four players, or AI teammates, against Alphas rebuilt from the Institute's data. Three routes per cycle, each with its own Alphas and field mechanics; lineup and buffs are picked before the fight.
The top difficulty: much higher rates of Prismana Aniimo Eggs and Prismatic Collectibles, a chance at ultra-rare Secret Collectibles, and strict escape conditions. Go as a team.
Holo-Battle Interlink replays freely: the game keeps your best Star Rank on each of the three routes, pays milestone rewards on their total, plus Support Rewards when you help other Pathfinders raise theirs. It is not the solo Holo-Battle Sim. Chaos was already waiting in the game’s rank table: Elite Egg Seeker lists “Unlock Chaos difficulty for Operation: Egg Heist Team Mode” among its perks, and the Egg Heist guide explains how a run works.
The new events
Dress an Aniimo with accessories that fit the theme and submit it: the Institute scores the match, and score milestones pay rewards. Retry as often as you like.
The notice says "a brand-new Aniimo"; the event's own data names it: Dazmand. Track it with search attempts; free ones refill but don't stack, then Vein Essence buys more.
Two weeks, two Prismana forms, each drawn to one Nurture ecosystem: Rosetower Woods, then Berylline Vale.
A login event. The Events screen already carries one over exactly these dates, Journey Moments: 7 login days, a Sparkling Egg on the last.
Aniimo Discovery’s research tasks are all about Dazmand: catch 3, 5, 10 and 20 of them, win fights with it deployed, use its skills and its Ultimate, catch one of Elite rating or better. The 20th catch pays the Perfect Dazmand Egg; the full list is in the event’s tab. For the two Prismana weeks, the weekly Prismana guide pins the exact flower and how to force a Prismana Flow.
In the Shop: Radiant Waveglow and the Fragrant Moonlight Set
The banner is Radiant Waveglow’s own Shop art. The notice calls the pack Laurel Moon Blessing; the game sells it as the Fragrant Moonlight Set. What the Shop sells, tab by tab, is on the Shop page.
More in 1.1: what the notice leaves out
The notice lists the headlines. The update itself carries more, starting with a weekly way back to Irisalis once she is your ally.
Defeat Irelia and spend Primegy to claim the chest, up to twice a week; the limit resets every Monday at 04:00.
A new held item in three rarities (Rare, Epic, Legendary), with one effect: "summoned clones deal 30% additional damage". A chest of it sits in the Legendary Journey shop.
Holo-Battle Interlink gets three new Alphas for its week of 8 October, with three new route effects (Cold Snap, Volt Surge, Reversal Strike). The game puts Fulmintis forward that week.
The elements to bring against each of them, and every route effect, are on the Boss Rush reference.
Every Aniimo's basic attack now has a 0.3-second cooldown, up from 0.1.
Transmog: 3 custom presets instead of 2, and a video preview of each set.
Friends: a Close Friend now unlocks Travel Perks and Team-Up Perks, their requests to join your world or your team are accepted automatically.
Home: the production caps of the Home facilities go up.
Lore: 10 new entries in the Archival Chip, on the Lore page once they unlock.
A draw, Forest of Butterfly Dreams, is scheduled from 30 September to 28 October, headlined by the Butterfly Dream Amber outfit, with a guaranteed top prize by the 200th draw.
