LET IT DIE: INFERNO Season 4 – Hell Gate’s Great Tectonic Shift
Hell Gate has undergone a massive transformation and awaits fresh (Raider) meat.
- The Road Ahead: Season 4 shifts the focus fully to PvE and removes PvEvP. For Raiders who want to fight the horrors of Hell Gate side-by-side, Duo Mode is available for online play.
- A Transformed Hell Gate: Season 4 introduces 21 maps, from an arcade chock-full of mushrooms and Japanese hot springs to a festival, shopping street, and parking structure. Players can choose their maps based on Body Rank, and after beating Berserk Mironette, an additional map becomes available.
- New Enemies: Grotesque horrors wander the maps, spanning the Riff type and the Rider type. The Gomamusha boss fight gains a challenging third and final phase.
- Brutal Weapons: Two additions join the arsenal:
- Chela: A summoning artifact that calls forth the claw of a giant crab that lives in the Demon Realm. Its crushing grip can pulverize towering trees and pull down colossal giants.
- Chemical Popper: A ranged weapon that fires potent, corrosive acid. It smells faintly of summer, but don’t be fooled. Get too close, and it will dissolve everything you hold dear.
- LET IT STYLE: To celebrate the launch of LET IT DIE Offline, LID-themed armors arrive in INFERNO, including the Bare ‘n Wild Gear Set for fans of… ahem… minimalist attire, the Direct Hell Gear Set (Kiwako’s armor), and the Meijin Gear Set.
- EAG Armors: Season 4 also adds the EAG armors from Arena, featuring the TaZmanian, Chicken, Shine, Crocodile, and Alpaca Heads, plus the Shin Gear Set, a blue tracksuit.
- Mastery Switches: Joe and Inva receive Mastery Switches. Joe can shift between All-rounder and Technician, while Inva can shift between Technician and Attacker.
- Other Features:
- Matchmaking now displays how many players are waiting for Arena and Clan matches.
- Rarity 4 craft materials are now available with expanded crafting options.
- The “Stopper” gimmick blocks all passage (even for enemies) in various locations.
- Seven additional charms and two emotes are available.
