ENDER MAGNOLIA: Bloom in the Mist Update Adds New Game+, Boss Rush Mode

Update 1.1.0 for the recently released ENDER MAGNOLIA: Bloom in the Mist has introduced New Game+, Boss Rush mode, cosmetic upgrades, and several bug fixes.

Boss Rush mode unlocks in the “Memories” menu after beating all the bosses in the game. It records clear times and attempts, as well as rewards players with “Fragments”, an in-game currency to unlock new costumes for protagonist Lilac.

New Game+ can be started after beating the base game and seeing a specific ending. Players will have access to all previously collected gear and relics not locked behind the story, while enemies are stronger and use new attack patterns. Here’s part of the patch notes on Steam.
