A new map and costume series for Copycat will be arriving this week. The first in the costume series will be for Weeping Clown with an A-costume, Mask of Lies, which will be available for 688 Echoes. It will be available for a limited time only though no word yet if it will return in the future.
In addition, the new Copycat map will launch this week after maintenance on August 27th. It will be based on Oletus Manor and will have new features including the hunter, “Nightmare,” a masquerade event, secrete messages that can be exchanged with each other, and more. View the trailer above for more details.
- New S-costume for Wu Chang, Hellwarden
This costume will be coming this week on August 27th after maintenance as well. It’s an S-costume so it will be available for 2888 Echoes or 12888 Fragments. It will also come with a matching A-accessory, Warding Tongbao, which will be 1068 Echoes or 3888 Fragments.
Upcoming Character Days:
- Perfumer (August 25th)
- Wu Chang (August 27th)
What’s leaving this week:
- Beanie’s Daily Crossover
The crossover will only be around for one more week and will be leaving by Monday of next week. For those interested, make sure to finish the event for the free portrait, portrait frame, graffiti, and emote (exclusive to Fire Investigator) before they leave. If you haven’t nabbed the costume and furniture either, they are available for Echoes in the Shop. Unlike the Time Raiders crossover which has already been confirmed to be coming back, the Beanie’s Daily crossover is up in the air.
However, in the gameplay trailer for the crossover, both “Faro Lady” and Night Watch were seen which led players to speculate there could be a part 2 to this crossover in the future. Considering Beanie’s Daily is a Chinese IP, it is likely it will return in the future especially if sales and interest were high amongst the IDV community.
