Bluepoch Games announces that its time-travel strategic RPG, Reverse: 1999, will release its free, highly anticipated Ancient Greece-themed update and Mystery Box Carnival on February 29th. Titled “The Prisoner in the Cave,” the update will appear on the App Store, Google Play, and PC. With 19.99 million downloads since launching last October, Reverse: 1999 has topped the App Store and Google Play charts in more than 160 countries, including the United States, Canada, Korea, and Japan.
Version 1.4 introduces a major storyline that sees Timekeeper Vertin and arcanist companions Sonetto, Regulus, and Liliya traveling to a mysterious island unaffected by the “Storm.” It also includes three new powerful arcanists, three original game modes, epic rewards that enable players to gain 20 free pulls and a free 5-star character, and various in-game activities, making this the most content-heavy update released so far. New players can gain up to 80 free pulls in this new version.
In Reverse: 1999, become the Timekeeper in an alternate history where the flow of time rewinds itself due to the mysterious “Storm.” Recruit a team of arcanists – those born with eccentric, powerful abilities – from different countries and eras. Players carefully arrange incantations and confront Manus Vindictae, a group of rebellion arcanists, to restore the natural order of the universe. Reverse: 1999 elevates anime-stylized games with breathtaking cinematics, jaw-dropping Ultimates, and full English voice acting comprising a unique array of dialects and accents.
