This update might be labeled “mini Arise Crossover XMAS 2.5 UPDATE,” but if you’re an Infernal grinder, it quietly changes everything.
Most of the power in this update isn’t flashy. It’s buried in Infernal floors, relic slots, shadow limits, XP buffs, and massive grind boosts — the kind of stuff that decides who jumps ahead and who gets left behind.
Let’s break it all down.
Infernal Castle Expansion (Floor 500+)
Infernal Castle now officially pushes past Floor 500, opening the door to future scaling all the way toward 600 and beyond.
What this really means:
- New progression ceiling
- New shadow tiers
- New relic pools
- Future updates won’t reset your grind — this is long-term progression
This expansion also quietly prepares Infernal for bigger seasonal drops later.
20 New Shadows, Relics, Accessories & Titles
Yes — everything comes in 20s:
- 20 new Infernal Shadows
- 20 new Relics
- 20 new Accessories
- 20 new Titles
These aren’t meant to all be obtained instantly. This is long-term progression padding, meaning Infernal won’t feel “finished” after one season.
Some shadows reuse models for now, but they scale higher — which matters far more than cosmetics for late-game grinding.
World 3 Red Gate Upgrade (GR Rank)
World 3 Red Gates can now reach GR Rank.
Why this matters:
- Better XP
- Better Shadow drops
- Faster rebirth farming
- Faster relic progression
If you’re still trying to push rebirth levels, this is your new best friend.
Christmas Buff Event (Secret Grind Booster)
This is where the update gets wild.
Every 6 hours, for 2 hours, the game spawns:
- 8 Red Gates across World 1–3
- 4× XP
- 4× Drop Rate
- 4× Arise Chance
Stack this with other boosts and you can hit insane leveling speeds.
This is the best rebirth grind window the game has ever had.
Daily Winter Rewards UI
New winter reward panel gives:
- Free skins
- Daily festive rewards
- Potential secret title requirements (don’t skip these)
Log in and claim — missing these might lock you out of future secrets.
Guild System Expansion
- Max members increased to 150
- More relic slots
- More shadow slots (now 18)
- More gem/cash caps
- Higher weapon & shadow levels
Guild-based power scaling is officially part of the endgame now.
Rebirth Level Cap Raised
Max rebirth level increased to 35.
This is huge.
If you’re not grinding rebirth during Christmas Buff windows — you’re wasting time.
New Redeem Codes
Use these right now:
MerryChristmas
ThanksForPlaying
Arised
These give mounts, resources, and grind boosts that massively help early–mid game players.
This update isn’t about hype.
It’s about positioning yourself for the next 3–6 updates.
If you grind now:
- You rebirth faster
- You lock in relic slots
- You scale earlier
- You snowball harder later
Arise Crossover Xmas 2.5 quietly handed grinders the biggest boost of the year — and most players haven’t even realized it yet.
