Upon logging into the game, you will find the "event sign-in reward" screen that will give us 320 EM and six EXE card packs over two weeks. Don't forget to check your in-game mail to receive 500 EM the development team has sent as compensation for some bugs, the Twitter and Facebook rewards if you participated in the case of the 
Facebook rewards and the "stage completion" rewards.

The event stage takes place in the Cyberspace and its pretty much a stage heavily based on the first stage of Network Transmission. While the stage is short, its very well done and you will find yourself collecting various iconic Battle Network items like "zenny", "battle chips" and "mystery data" to get points. Each of these items will give you 10, 100 and 500 points respectively and you have to reach 1300 points to get one of the stage completions stars.

The characters and weapons that will yield more bonus points or damage dealt are as follows.




At the end of the stage you will find Cyber Peacock as the boss. While thematically speaking he fits the event, it's a shame they got so many things right, including two wonderful music remixes but they couldn't make a boss from the Battle Network series for this event.

If you want to check the remixes of Operation! and Net Battle in the video below. Let us know what do you think in the comments!







The Card Shop is now officially open and you can purchase EXE Card Packs until December 2 at 15:59 (UTC+8). You will be getting plenty of free packs via the "event sign-in rewards" or the rewards list from the Network Guardian event stage so perhaps your EM is better used somewhere else but we leave that decision to you.

A few adjustments have been added to the game with the update. Nothing ground breaking but being able to equip weapons that you have placed in the Backup System without having to go there an unselect them is a very welcome addition.

  1. Optimized controls for Backup System: When making Battle Preparation, you can toggle between your Main weapon with a Sub weapon in the Backup System.
  2. Added a Copy Button that players can use to duplicate their ID for interactions and participations in events.
  3. Weather effects optimization: When you adjust game resolution to "Low", all weather effects in game will be disabled.

If you want to check out some bug fixes, new items added to the shop and some changes done to the EXP event "Escaping from the Floating Ruins", you can do so here.

The Battle Network event continues next week! Will it bring another character? Stay tuned to the blog this weekend!

  1. The more I see this the more I want a 3D remake of X2-6. An upgrade to Irregular Hunter X would be nice too.

  2. I think it's a clever idea to use cyber-peacock as the boss.
    Theses kind of thematic choice is the stuff i enjoy in a crossover.
