The Neverness to Everness 1.4 update landed on September 30, 2026, and it's the largest drop Hotta Studio has shipped since launch. The patch is called "For Whom the Verses Mourn," and it brings two headline characters, a new theme park district, a Porsche collaboration, and a stack of limited events that run deep into November.

If you play NTE on Android, the important facts are simple. There's a maintenance window, there's compensation, and there's a lot of new content to work through before the limited boards close on October 21. This guide walks the whole thing in order, from the requirements you need to meet to the events worth your daily time.

What's in the Neverness to Everness 1.4 Update

The version 1.4 update went live after a maintenance window that ran September 30 from 06:00 to 11:00 UTC+8. Perfect World Games and Hotta Studio announced the date in advance, and the official NTE patch notes confirm the full content list. Anyone who created a character before the maintenance began receives 300 Annulith for the downtime and another 300 as bug-fix compensation, both delivered by in-game mail.

The patch splits into a few large pieces: two new playable S-Class characters, a new story episode, a new park map, the Porsche collab, and a set of events running through November 11.

• New limited S-Class character: Blackbird, available September 30 to October 21
• New limited S-Class character: Akane, arriving with the second update phase on October 21
• Returning limited S-Class: Lacrimosa, back through October 21
• New map: Pukaland, a theme park region with its own currency and pass
• New story episode: "The Witch," plus new City Hangouts and Home Time content
• NTE x Porsche collaboration with two new vehicles and returning Mystery Boxes
• Free compensation: 300 Annulith for maintenance plus 300 for bug fixes

One scheduling note that trips people up. Version 1.4 has two phases. The first went live September 30. A second update arrives October 21 with Akane's outfit and a new Anomaly Commission, so not everything listed in the patch notes is available on day one.

Neverness to Everness Blackbird: The New Limited S-Class

Blackbird is the marquee addition, and she headlines the update's promotional boards. She's a limited S-Class character who arrives on the "Foretold Finale" board, which runs from after the September 30 update through October 21 at 05:59 UTC+8. The board also features A-class characters Mint, Edgar, and Adler, plus three cosmetic rewards: the "The Harbinger" glider livery, the "Nightplume" Yesteryear bike livery, and Blackbird's "Rouge et Noir" outfit.

To pull for her, you need to complete the main story quest "Prologue - A New Destination - Head to Eibon Antique Shop." That's the same gate that applies to every board in this version, so clear it first if you haven't.

Blackbird brings more than a board. She anchors new story content, appears as an Auction Assistant in the "Going, Going, Gone!" collectible activity, and stars in her own web event, "Blackbird's Invitation," which runs September 30 at 11:00 through November 11. That web event has a referral structure: each invite code links to up to 20 new and 20 returning accounts, and completing quests earns Annulith or Divination Attempts that can pay out Solid Dice.

Her outfit list is long, which tells you she's the version's centerpiece:

• "Rouge et Noir," obtained from the Foretold Finale board or Divination Perks
• "Wandering Stars," added to the shop on October 7 at a discounted 2,680 Riftcrystal, down from 3,280
• "Unfazed Denim," unlocked at Bond Level 10

The Foretold Finale Board and Divination Perks

The board runs on a roll system, and Divination Perks track cumulative rolls. Hit 50, 120, and 200 rolls and you can claim the three featured cosmetics directly from the event page rather than relying on luck. Rolls before those milestones can still drop them randomly.

Neverness to Everness Akane: The Second-Phase Character

Akane is the other new S-Class character, and she's the reason version 1.4 has two phases. Her content lands with the October 21 second update, not on September 30. If you're planning pulls, budget for both boards.

Akane's most tangible free reward is her "House Special" outfit, which arrives in your in-game mail after the October 21 update, alongside 2,000,000 Fons. Both are part of the Pukaland Fest Special Gift Pack.

The first half of that gift pack is claimable right now. After the September 30 update, you can pull 10 Solid Dice and the "Like Clockwork" avatar frame straight from your mail. Eligibility for the whole pack requires a character and the unlocked Mail feature before version 1.4 ends, so log in and claim if you want both halves.

Neverness to Everness Pukaland: The New Map Explained

Pukaland is the new location and the update's biggest structural change. It's a theme park district, presented in the patch notes with the line "Where joy gathers, anything can happen." It comes with its own activities, its own currency, and a permanent discount pass.

The economy works like this. You collect Puka Stars and exchange them at the Puka Exchange Shop for the "Pukaland Gold Pass." Once you hold the pass, every Pukaland attraction is 90% off, permanently. If you plan to spend real time in the park, buy the pass early, since the discount applies to everything from that point on.

Pukaland also hosts the "Pukaland Travelogue" event, running September 30 to November 11. You collect Wonder Stamps by completing limited-time encounters, and the rewards include Annulith, Fabricated Dice, Floe Cinema Tickets, Elite Hunter Guides, and Chaotic Dye.

A second location, St. Arbor, also joins the map, described as a quiet town at the foot of a mountain. It's smaller than Pukaland but tied into the new story.

NTE x Porsche: The Born to Race Mystery Box

The Porsche collaboration is the update's spend-heavy content, and it's built around Mystery Boxes. The new "Born to Race" box runs September 30 to November 11 at 05:59 UTC+8. Opening a box costs Fons x50,000 or Annulith x50, and the price rises with each box. There are 15 boxes total, and opening all of them unlocks every reward in the pool.

The headline pulls are two Porsche collab vehicles: the "Porsche Taycan Turbo GT with Weissach Package" and the "Porsche 911 Turbo (930)." The pool also holds Fabricated Dice, a Handwritten Letter, Fons, the "Redline Rush" avatar frame, and the "Roar Recharged" namecard. Collab vehicles don't come with a signature nameplate, so if that matters to you, factor it in.

The "Everdriving" Mystery Boxes also return for the same window, carrying the "Porsche 918 Spyder," Esper Zero's "Perfect Partners" outfit, and the "Heartbeat Moment" frame. Important for collectors: your previous Everdriving progress carries over, so you don't restart from zero.

Owning any collab vehicle opens the "Porsche Club" perks, which differ by car:

Version 1.4 Events Worth Your Time

The event list is long, and not all of it deserves equal attention. Here's the short version.

Circle Gifts (login event): Log in for 7 days total to earn 10 Solid Dice. Low effort, decent payoff.

Pukaland Travelogue: Collect Wonder Stamps across the park for Annulith, Fabricated Dice, and assorted upgrade materials. This is the event to prioritize if you like the new map.

Terminal Depths: Clear stages to earn the "Off-Rail Operator" title and standard rewards.

Coal Lump's Treasure (starts October 8): Earn the "Prism Drop" currency and hit high scores for two titles, plus shop exchanges.

Circle Bounty: The season's quest ladder, with a paid "Elite Hunter Supplies" track that adds Annulith, Dice, and Fons. The "Honor Hunter Supplies" tier throws in the "Pukaboo" avatar and a "Pukaland Journal" namecard.

One more piece of the patch worth flagging: the "Puka Membership Program" under City Tycoon. Raising your Sweetdream Level unlocks three character outfits (Sakiri's "Gingerbear Biscuit," Baicang's "Master Slacker," Haniel's "Classroom Hijinks"), an S-Class Standard Character Selection Box, an S-Class Arc Selection Box, and a batch of accessories and titles.

How to Update NTE on Android

The update path depends on your platform, and Android is the least fussy.

• Open the Neverness to Everness app on your phone. When you launch it after the maintenance window, the game prompts you to download the update.
• Follow the in-game prompt and let the download finish. Since this is a large update, use Wi-Fi if your data plan is limited.
• Log in and claim your mail. Maintenance compensation of 300 Annulith plus 300 bug-fix Annulith should be waiting if you made a character before September 30.
• Clear "Prologue - A New Destination - Head to Eibon Antique Shop" if you haven't, since every limited board in version 1.4 requires it.
• Claim the Pukaland Fest gift pack from mail: 10 Solid Dice and the "Like Clockwork" avatar frame.

If you installed NTE from a third-party source rather than the Play Store, check that your build matches the official version before the boards open. Playing on an outdated client during a version launch can lock you out of the new content until you patch.

Standard disclaimer: prices, event dates, and reward pools for version 1.4 come from the official patch notes and can change mid-event. Treat any Mystery Box budget as a ceiling you set for yourself, not a target the game sets for you.

Pros and Cons of the 1.4 Update

The update is generous in some places and aggressive in others. Here's the honest split.

Pros

• Two new S-Class characters and a returning limited one give pullers real choice
• Pukaland's Gold Pass is a one-time purchase with a permanent 90% discount, which is unusually player-friendly
• Free compensation of 600 Annulith total, with no strings beyond playing
• Mystery Box progress on Everdriving carries over, so returning players aren't punished
• A new story episode plus City Hangouts and Home Time keep the narrative moving

Cons

• The content is split across two phases, so October 21 matters as much as September 30
• Mystery Boxes are a spend sink with rising per-box costs and a 15-box ceiling
• Collab vehicles exclude signature nameplates, which is a real omission for collectors
• The board gate requires main story progress, so new accounts can't dive straight into pulls

Nothing here is broken. The split-phase schedule is the part most likely to frustrate people who expect everything to be live on day one.
