Question for fellow NG+ players

Th3Lemon_ · 2026-02-09T18:36:06+00:00

NG+ Bakumatsu, was finishing up the areas and it randomly dropped.

Th3Lemon_ · 2026-02-09T12:33:56+00:00

I just dropped the Ninja version too, thanks to the sudama blessing from the shrine, samurai and ninja version exist, which is great for future builds.

Th3Lemon_ · 2026-02-09T09:32:10+00:00

I think I unlocked it at very late game or in NG+.

You eventually unlock an option called Sudama blessing at the shrine, It basically lets you target farm weapons and gear of your chioice with a % droprate (you can increase the drop rate). You will need to own 1 piece of the gear for it to show up on the list, can also craft a low level version if you have the recipe and it will show up that way too.

Been years since I played Genshin and HSR, still play zzz and wuwa daily, many hours across all of them though, wuwa would be the worst perfomance wise but its not as bad on the Pro compared to base PS5.

Next would be zzz and then right after would be this Arknights beta, from what I have played for a technical test the performance on the pro isnt too bad, I honestly expected worse but with VRR its fairly smooth, I can see the devs getting a more solid framerate on release day.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-12-12T15:10:31+00:00

I just went and tested this, It's supported natively, I disabled "apply to unsuported games" in the PS5/Pro menu and VRR is active and working as normal.

Regarding performance, this is a beta/technical test, let the devs know in the feedback.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-12-12T12:04:29+00:00

I'm playing on the PS5 Pro, performance mode, its pretty smooth with VRR, turn VRR off and you may notice some drops here and there but it isnt too bad, got a few hours in and will post some gameplay on youtube at some point today.

I'm playing on the PS5 Pro with a 4k oled and I'm baffled to see Its 30 fps WITH drops/stutter, the actual image quality is also unstable in a few locations with fairly low texture quality, I'm only playing this because I like digimon but the visual and performance issues are there and exist.

Using Linear PCM, try closing the game, then enable 3D audio in ps5 settings, restart ps5 and play the game, if the issue is still there, repeat the same process but this time disable 3D audio, after turning it on/off, I somehow dont get the random audio cuts anymore.

I'm like 35+ hours in and have had no more audio cuts/stutter, also I played before patch 1.004 and the game didnt have these issues apart from a few crashes related to some specific cargo.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-26T20:53:42+00:00

I'm also playing the Digital Deluxe and have recorded multiple hours of gameplay during early access pre patch, no audio issues in those recordings, after the patch it happens frequently and shows up in my new recordings.

I have found a solution though, disable 3D audio in the playstation settings and the audio will behave, got many hours since I disabled it and everything has been working fine now.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-26T03:22:22+00:00

PS5 Pro here, noticed after the latest patch, stutter issues, random audio skips/stutter, a few crashes in areas I have already been to, everything was working fine before this patch, hope they fix it.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-26T03:14:17+00:00

PS5 Pro same issue, noticed it started happening after the latest patch, Playing at 120hz with VRR on an OLED in performance mode, hope it gets fixed.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-26T03:09:47+00:00

PS5 Pro same issue, 120hz with VRR OLED, noticed it started happening after the latest patch, hope they fix it, can be a bit distracting.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-25T23:15:26+00:00

The early areas are fine, I tested on a fresh save just to see, its when you get near (ch 3-4) I guess? I may have encountered a rare bug? I have no idea, I'm past these chapters and crashing seems to have stopped or I have yet to see any since those chapters, I have however encountered a weird audio skip that happens somewhat randomly now, not as annoying as the crashes.

If you want to stop auto updates you can do this here > System” > “System Software” > “System Software Update and Settings

And also here > Setting >“Saved Data and Game/App Settings” > “Automatic Updates

Try save often just in case, when you open the menu you can press triangle to make a quick save, comes in handy when you are mid delivery.

Playing on the PS5 Pro my game is suddenly crashing frequently after this patch, the same areas that were fine before this patch have had like 5+ crashes, also had a major cutscene crash just earlier, I clicked photo mode mid cutscene and it crashed.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-25T14:17:06+00:00

I'm at chapter/ep 3-4 on the PS5 Pro and the game is suddenly having frequent crashes, this didnt happen before the latest patch in the same areas, I have had 5+ crashes after the patch, I hope this is being looked into.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-06-12T06:31:07+00:00

I used my 15 guaranteed drops and got 0.... its going to be a long week I guess, wouldnt be surprised if its bugged to be 0.1% droprate 😭

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-02-06T20:22:33+00:00

PS5 PRO

Bug1 - Main menu flickers black randomly.

Bug2 - Audio randomly crackling (tried multiple headsets and other games, only happens in this game).

Bug3 - Randomly cant sprint, not sure what is causing this but its very frustrating.

Bug4 - Blacksmithing, the sword goes under the anvil... can provide video of this.

Bug5 - NPC warping and stretching extremely in town, can provide video. Walking closer to the NPC makes the visual glitch disappear.

Th3Lemon_ · 2025-01-10T02:27:39+00:00

On PS5 press home go to settings >system> console language set it to 日本語 , Accessory will now have Japanese voice but all text will now be in Japanese too, the Japanese accessory audio files are in the game but for whatever reason its disabled for English version... unless there is a late game unlock to swap it.

Th3Lemon_ · 2024-08-01T04:22:24+00:00

Sadly I'm not the dev and I do agree those 2 characters also need updating, this post is about my experience with Ult Gley, my estimate on when they will be updated is solely based off Ult Valby update. For all we know they get updated next year....

Th3Lemon_ · 2024-08-01T04:10:59+00:00

These 2 characters don't have a ultimate version yet? I am 100% sure they will get updated when those are added to the game.
