Perfect World's Hotta Studio has announced the first post-launch update for its supernatural urban open-world RPG, Lee Hwan. Version 1.1, titled 'Corridor of Dreams,' is set to drop on the 3rd, bringing with it the highly anticipated character Lachrymoza. Alongside her, the S-rank character Chaos will also be joining the fray in stages.

This update also marks the debut of the first phase of the Porsche collaboration. A special preview broadcast on the 23rd of last month offered a glimpse of new maps and a variety of other content, heightening player expectations. To coincide with the update, a limited-time board for the S-rank character 'It's Time to Wake Up from a Sweet Dream' will open, offering chances to snag a limited glider livery, a limited motorcycle livery, and new costumes for Lachrymoza.

Lachrymoza, the ace of E.T.D. Team 4, possesses abilities that allow her to conjure objects in mid-air and even duplicate enemy skills in combat. In tandem with this update, the limited-time Arc Research Recruitment Plan 'Nocturne Special Edition' will launch, increasing the drop rate for the S-rank Arc 'The Last Rose.' New additions also include the new vehicle Porsche 918 Spyder, a new collaboration costume, and new real estate. Notably, the new property, 'Pegasus Residence,' features a vehicle elevator, allowing players to drive their cars directly up to the upper floors of the building. According to the official announcement, this Porsche collaboration is currently just the first phase, fueling speculation among players about further content.

Beyond the shiny new cars and residences, the update introduces the new map 'Sunrise Isle' and fresh main story content. A host of events are also planned, including the 'Sunrise Isle Travelogue' login event, the 'Baking Up a Storm' bagel system event, and the chaotic 'Wild Racing' content. During these events, players can complete designated missions to earn in-game rewards, including Stellar Jade and Phosphors.

Later in the version's cycle, the S-rank character Chaos will be available through the 'Path of No Return' limited board. Additionally, the 'Fight Tournament' event and a new city vitality content, 'Fight Club,' will be rolled out sequentially. Lee Hwan is playable across multiple platforms, including the official website, PS5, iOS, and Android. Pre-registration is also underway on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and the Samsung Galaxy Store.
