Anime Vanguards' Winter Update 3.0: A Festive Feast of New Content

Roblox developer Kitawari has unleashed Anime Vanguards Winter Update 3.0, a major update boasting a revamped lobby, a fresh unit lineup, and a plethora of quality-of-life improvements. This update is packed with winter-themed additions designed to keep players engaged for weeks.

The most striking change is the completely overhauled lobby, offering expanded space for anime enthusiasts. The update also includes a remastered UI, featuring a significantly improved stage selection interface. Kitawari stated in the patch notes that the previous lobby was too small, prompting the creation of this significantly larger and more visually appealing space, even including a customizable day/night cycle accessible in the settings.

Anime Vanguards Winter Update 3.0 introduces a redesigned lobby, 12 new units, and more.

Key features of the update include:

  • New Game Modes: "Portals," a new game mode with unique mechanics and tiered rewards, encourages players to utilize winter units and skins for enhanced damage and bonus rewards. "Sandbox Mode" allows for unrestricted experimentation with strategies.

  • 12 New Units: Twelve new units are available across a new Winter Banner, the Portals game mode, the battle pass, and leaderboard rewards. These include Emmie (and her Ice Witch variant), Rom and Ran (Fanatic), Foboko (Hellish), Karem (Chilled), Rogita (Super 4), Soburo (Contract), Regnaw (Rage), Dodara (Contract), Sosora (Puppeteer), Seban, Rodock, and Giyu.

  • Quality-of-Life Improvements: Numerous enhancements streamline gameplay, such as smoother unit placement, a dedicated tab for Evolution Quests, search bars for skins and familiars, and improved unit targeting indicators.

The update builds upon the November update, which introduced content inspired by the anime series Dandadan. For more information, including active codes, visit here.
