After weeks of player inquiries, the development team behind Infinity Nikki has finally addressed the community's concerns. The launch of Version 1.5 on April 28th was met with significant backlash due to its unfinished state. Acknowledging the issues, the team admitted they were not fully prepared for the release. As a result, they have decided to delay the rollout of Version 1.6.
When Is the Update Releasing?
Originally slated for June 4th, Version 1.6 has been rescheduled to June 12th. This delay extends the current Bubble Season, keeping all its associated events like Chase the Bubbles, Rainbow Album, and Where Are the Gifties? active until the new release date. Additionally, stores such as Pear-Pal Selected/Store: Clothing, Heartfelt Gifts, and the Shake Up Bubble Jar! top-up event will remain open until June 12th. Weekly tasks, including Starlit Pursuit, originally scheduled for May 20th, will now be part of Version 1.6.
The developers have issued an apology, explaining their challenges with performance across various platforms, including PlayStation. They are currently refining gameplay systems and have assured fans that missing storylines such as Threads of Reunion are not canceled but merely postponed.
Apart from the Version 1.6 Delays, What’s Up with Infinity Nikki?
The game has been plagued with numerous issues recently, including bugs, broken quests, and co-op malfunctions. In an effort to mitigate the situation, the team is offering compensation: 120 Diamonds and 1 Crystal per day from June 5th to June 12th, which players can claim by logging in daily.
Some players view this compensation as a last-ditch effort to improve engagement metrics following the launch mishaps. Additionally, the community has expressed disappointment over the timing of the apology, which was quickly followed by promotional banners for new outfits.
