In a recent post on social media, game company Square Enix announced the upcoming new update for video game Trials of Mana.

Update 1.1.0 will be added to PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC this coming Oct. 14. It will include new difficulty options to choose from, which are the No Future and Very Hard settings. There are also adjustments and bug fixes added.

Here are the full patch notes translated by Siliconera:

  • New difficulty “No Future” added:

    • Boss fights will have time limits.
    • Some boss fights may display a shorter attack range from the bosses.
    • You can get high-performance equipment of the same name using the Rainbow Item Seeds.
    • Two chain abilities added:
      • Sacred Sword Guidance: Party members that you’re not controlling will endure a knockout blow and remain with 1 HP.
      • Sacred Sword Guidance II: Recovers the HP of all party members by 100% after battle.
  • Other functions added:
    • New difficulty “Very Hard” added.
    • Class-change scenes and the end credits can now be skipped.
