System
The network architecture has been completely overhauled, and the game systems have been extensively reworked along with it.
If you get disconnected mid-game, reconnecting within 10 seconds keeps your character in the game.
UI
Clue Book
The Clue Book has changed from the circular UI in the top-left (PC) to a straight-line layout that spans the entire top of the screen (shared with mobile).
You can now press the Clue Book's expand button to unfold the cycle into a large circle.

In the expanded Clue Book, you can see all your collected clues at a glance as notes, and arrows show the path to your target.
Soul tokens you have marked with a color now show that player's nickname underneath.
The soul name is shown beneath your current target.
Clues
Obtained clues are now displayed in the center of the screen.
Added an effect where a clue you have read flies into your clue log and gets recorded.

3 clue types have been added/restored.
Same area : "Dokkaebi and A are currently in the same area."
Name and soul : "A is not Dokkaebi."
Target and chaser : "A's target is B's chaser."
The area name in location clues now uses a new color for better readability.
Twilight
The Twilight screen has been redesigned. Use the tabs on the right panel to switch between Chat, Nameplates, and Clues.
The Twilight Skip button has moved to the top of the screen.

Game Rules
Vengeful Spirit
Fallen souls now revive on the spot as a Vengeful Spirit after 5 seconds.
You no longer need to purchase \[Grudge], and the \[Grudge] tool has been removed.
Vengeful Spirits no longer disappear and remain until the end of the game.
Vengeful Spirits can only eliminate the soul ahead of them in the cycle. (In Who's With You?, this includes teammates.)
Vengeful Spirits always see an arrow pointing to the soul they can eliminate.

Vengeful Spirits move 50% slower and cannot dash, perform tasks, or use the shop. During Twilight, they can only spectate.
When only 1 survivor remains, that survivor wins immediately.
The Vengeful Spirit option in the room settings is now a simple On / Off toggle, and is On by default.
The Grudge price and Vengeful Spirit duration sub-options have been removed.
Turning on Vengeful Spirit no longer forces changes to time options such as Total Darkness, Before the Storm, and Showdown.
Shop
The Twilight Shop has been removed. (Including rerolls)
Starting on Day 2, a \[Wandering Shop] now appears at a random location on the map every day.
The Wandering Shop leaves when night falls, and appears the next day at a new location with new goods.
Walk up to the Wandering Shop and interact with it to open the shop.
The Wandering Shop's location is shown on the map.

All players share the same 3 items, and whoever buys first gets it.
Sold items are shown as Sold Out to all players.
Only living souls can buy items. Fallen souls can only browse.

Tasks
Stage 2 tasks have been removed.
Linked tasks, where Stage 2 was assigned only after completing Stage 1, are now all independent tasks. Each one is assigned separately and gives its own reward.
Drawing water from a well / Fill ritual bowl with water, Harvesting cabbage / Making kimchi, Harvesting greens / Preparing the royal table, Collect blade leaves / Smuggle blade leaves
