Fans of the time-twisting RPG Reverse: 1999 have exciting news to look forward to! Mark your calendars for April 18th, when a special livestream will unveil new content for the game's 1.5th anniversary and offer a sneak peek at the upcoming version 2.5, titled 'Showdown in Chinatown'. This stream promises to be the first detailed reveal of what players can expect in the next update.

The livestream will be hosted by the charismatic Captain Regulus and the newly introduced Officer Liang Yue, both appearing in charming chibi form. Attendees can look forward to exciting giveaways, including codes, and even a chance to win a Nintendo Switch 2 through a viewer competition.

While some details of version 2.5 have already been shared with Chinese players, the international community is eager to see what's in store. 'Showdown in Chinatown' is expected to pay homage to the iconic Hong Kong martial arts movies, weaving a dramatic crime thriller narrative centered around the pursuit of an arcanist vigilante.

Noire, a wheelchair-bound, perfectionist director, uses her unique ability to puppeteer her ideal actors against enemies. Additionally, Loggerhead, a character with a camera for a head, is set to make an appearance, adding a unique twist to the storyline.

While we await the livestream to confirm which elements will feature in the international versions of Reverse: 1999, fans of the Shaw Brothers and John Woo can anticipate plenty of nods to these cinematic legends in version 2.5.
