Please don’t be weird with it.
One change that has been in the pipeline for a few months is now imminent and is sure to bring players back is the Hot Spring update, which will include what the development team calls “sexy themes.”
New Hot Spring Update Coming To The First Descendant On February 13
Over the last few hours, The First Descendant team hosted a developer livestream, detailing its content plans for the rest of February. The team discussed the new Descendants, new features, and, most importantly, depending on who you ask, a new hot spring addition.
Very few details were shared about the hot springs, other than each of the game’s female Descendants would be able to wear skimpy bikinis, showing off the game’s recently added jiggle physics.
Following the livestream, the developers released a trailer for the Albion Hot Springs, which showed the game’s many characters wearing said bikinis hanging around in the water.
The update has clearly come in response to the number of gooners out there. In a recent Q&A, Nexon was bombarded with players requesting the developers “provide skins more suitable for an adult game,” stating that previous skins “were not nearly sexy enough.”
It’s an issue that the team didn’t necessarily disagree with, as in one response during the Q&A, they said, “We are working hard to create a wide variety of skins, ranging from cool to sexy. I believe ‘sexy’ can be defined in many ways—levels of exposure, emphasis on certain body parts, or specific codes. For example, Hayley’s new premium skin and Vably’s evolution skin can already be considered within this category. As for the hot spring skin, we’re planning to make it in a style that’s even ‘sexier,’ as per your feedback.”
Rise up gooner gang, I guess.
