- SUN rebuild tuning — Second Light combat transplanted into SUN may receive balance passes; cross-link combat and tier list updates when tiers change.
- Performance reports — Switch handheld versus PS5 versus Steam deck communities; we cite reproducible issues, not isolated tweets.
- Storefront corrections — Steam app metadata, regional pricing shifts, delisting scares (none announced).
- DLC or epilogue announcements — Quartet marketing emphasizes a complete package; note any surprises here first.
