Viractal update v.1.3.0 adds Sword Maiden Yggdra from Yggdra Union

Sting has released a new update patch for Viractal: Will You Trust Your Party? that raises the game's version to v.1.3.0. This update notably adds the Sword Maiden Yggdra from Yggdra Union: We'll Never Fight Alone.

This marks a major in-house crossover from the company, which has been best known for releasing Yggdra Union. Sting had also recently brought the game to PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch in 2023.

You can also find the official trailer for Viractal's v.1.3.0 update and a copy of its patch notes right below.

Hello everyone!

This is the Viractal Development Team.

The fifth major update, Version 1.3.0, is now available!

In this update, the gate to another world opens once again.

A brand-new Hard Mode stage, a new playable character, and an entirely new card type have arrived, bringing even more depth and possibilities to your adventures!

 

Bahoko's Otherworld Summoning Vol. 2!

Sword Maiden Yggdra – from Yggdra Union

Game Master Bahoko has once again summoned a hero from another world!

For this second collaboration event, Sword Maiden Yggdra from Yggdra Union joins the world of Viractal!

Princess of the Kingdom of Fantasinia.

A young ruler pursued by fate, carrying the banner of hope.

Yggdra is a cooperative support character who inspires and strengthens her allies.

While empowering the entire party and supporting the front lines, she can also wield the holy sword Gran Centurio to strike directly at her enemies.

Her unique enhancement ability, Union, increases her offensive power when allies share the same attribute.

The stronger your teamwork, the stronger Yggdra becomes.

When Yggdra initiates a battle, you'll hear a special Viractal-arranged version of the iconic Yggdra Union battle theme:

"Yggdra Sortie!"

With this exhilarating track playing in the background, Yggdra and her allies charge boldly into battle!

A variety of Tactics Cards from Yggdra Union also make their appearance!

Reimagined as Skill Cards within Viractal, they allow players to unleash abilities inspired by the original game.

And finally...

Her ultimate trump card: Crusade.

This devastating skill combines the attack power of every ally's hand and unleashes it in a single overwhelming strike.

A fitting finishing move for Yggdra, whose strength comes from the bonds she shares with her companions.

Sword Maiden Yggdra can be unlocked through the Alchemy Table.

 

New Stage: Sky Harmonia+

Following Dragon's Garden+, a new Hard Mode stage has arrived:

Sky Harmonia+

Designed for experienced adventurers, this stage offers one of Viractal's toughest challenges yet.

Its new mechanic is the Ambush Tile.

Enemies standing on special-colored pedestals will launch a preemptive attack before battle begins.

Proceed with caution!

Of course, regular enemies and bosses have also learned new tricks.

Prepare for ambushes, predict enemy actions, and carefully plan your route and strategy.

Can you overcome this trial in the skies?

Sky Harmonia+ can be unlocked through the Alchemy Table.

 

New Card Type: Instant Cards

A brand-new card type, Instant Cards, has been added!

Instant Cards are identified by the  symbol at the end of their name.

Although they cannot be upgraded, they are generally more powerful than standard Skill Cards.

Once used during battle, they are permanently removed from your deck.

This allows you to unleash powerful effects without permanently bloating your deck.

Need a way out of a desperate situation?

Instant Cards provide a powerful new tactical option exactly when you need it most.

For detailed effects, please see the "Instant Card List" included in this article.
