Update 2.0 is a real turning point for Ghoul://RE. This isn’t just a balance pass or a small content drop. Hinami V2 completely reshapes how her playstyle works, and alongside that, the game finally introduces a proper shop, inventory system, and long-term progression foundation.
If you play Hinami, or you’re thinking about switching to her after this update, this guide explains everything you actually need to know.
Hinami V2
Hinami V2 leans heavily into control, pressure, and aerial dominance. Compared to the older version, she now feels much more aggressive and mobile, with better combo flow and crowd control options.
She’s no longer just about zoning. Hinami V2 rewards players who like chaining skills and staying on top of enemies.
Hinami V2 Skills
Z Skill – Wing Guard & Tentacle Slashes
This is both a defensive and offensive tool.
Hinami protects herself using her wings, then follows up by unleashing slashes with her tentacles. It’s strong for:
- Blocking incoming pressure
- Punishing enemies who overcommit
- Starting close-range combos safely
Used correctly, this skill lets you stay aggressive without being reckless.
X Skill – Tentacle Grab
Hinami grabs an enemy with her tentacles and pulls them directly toward her.
This is your main engage and control tool.
- Excellent for isolating targets
- Pulls enemies out of positioning
- Sets up guaranteed follow-ups
This skill alone makes Hinami V2 much scarier in one-on-one fights.
C Skill – Wing Slam (Launcher)
Hinami slams her wings into the ground, launching enemies into the air.
This is where the kit really opens up.
- Sends enemies skyward
- Creates combo opportunities
- Forces panic movementM2 Variant (Air Follow-Up)
Using the M2 variant lets Hinami follow the enemy into the air and continue slashing mid-air.
This turns the skill from a simple launcher into a full aerial combo starter and gives Hinami serious damage potential if you can execute cleanly.
New Shop System
Update 2.0 introduces a completely redesigned shop that finally feels modern and expandable.
What’s New in the Shop
- Brand-new shop UI
- New equipments
- Universal Arata skins
- New emotes
- New premium currency: Credits
Credits are designed for long-term cosmetic and equipment progression, separating premium content from grind currency.
New Inventory System
This is one of the most important changes in the update.
Inventory Features
- Store all skins and Arata skins
- New equip and unequip system
- Cleaner management of cosmetics and gear
The developers have also confirmed that everything will become tradeable in future updates, which means this system is laying the groundwork for an economy later on.
New Arata Skins
Update 2.0 adds some of the most requested Arata skins so far.
Available Arata Skins
- Guts Arata Skin
- Igris Arata Skin
- Comes with 2 variants
These are cosmetic, but they’re clearly aiming to make Arata skins a major part of player identity going forward.
New Equipments Added
The equipment pool has expanded with several standout items:
- Chrollo Outfit
- Tatara Jacket
- Wheel of Adaption Headgear
- Diadam Crown
- Aogiri Cloak
These don’t just look good; they’re part of the push toward deeper customization and build expression.
Working Codes (Redeem ASAP)
Make sure to redeem these before they expire.
- UPDATE2.0 – 350 GP
- HINAMIV2! – 300 GP
- SORRYFORDELAY – 300 GP (expires in 24 hours)
These help a lot if you’re buying new equipment or testing cosmetics.
Hinami V2 is no longer a niche pick. She now plays like a proper high-pressure controller with real combo depth. The addition of aerial follow-ups and strong grab tools means skilled players can completely dominate fights, while careless ones will get punished fast.
Combined with the new shop, inventory system, and premium currency, Update 2.0 feels like the start of Ghoul://RE’s next phase rather than just another patch.
