The First Descendant devs dropped their December patch details and pushed Season 4 all the way back to summer because they need to basically rebuild the entire endgame loop from scratch. Ultimate Yujin is getting added as a hybrid character who can either go full combat mode or play support medic, depending on which module you pick, and there's a new dungeon called Forbidden Sanctuary where you can grind for his stuff. They're also throwing in The Grim Reaper boss, which is apparently a poisoned-up Death Stalker that'll wreck you if you don't learn the fight mechanics.
The big news is they're completely overhauling how farming works at greater difficulties by letting players pick what loot they want first and then sending them on specific missions instead of the current random garbage system. Season 3 is getting stretched out with two more episodes while they cook Season 4, which promises Karel's story finale and some massive dungeon that's supposedly way bigger than anything currently in the game.
The game had 10 million players during launch week, but hemorrhaged users pretty fast, which explains why the studio is scrambling to fix the foundation before everything collapses.
