- Cookie Run: Kingdom has teased the contents of its next update
- It includes a new character, new element and more
- There’s also additional teasers for the update after that
Cookie Run: Kingdom is one of the top games worldwide, and for good reason. It combines the more minute, number-crunchy details of an ARPG with the indisputably adorable and aesthetically pleasing confectionary art style. And their upcoming update is set to boost it even further; a good thing too given recent controversies.
Now for once, I can confidently say I’m doing a public service breaking down this update. Especially since Cookie Run’s social media for some reason insists on using possibly the world’s longest image to explain what’s being added. So, the additions are:
- Wind Archer Cookie: A new character featuring an exclusive costume, Resplendent Wind Guardian. You’ll be able to recruit Wind Archer by collecting Spirits of Nature.
- New Treasures: Cape of the Adventurer & Sparkling Twilight Crown.
- New Element: Wind
- More to come: Elements of the next update have also been revealed, like the return of Hanbok costumes.
Sweet as sugar
Honestly, it surprised me to see that Cookie Run: Kingdom had ballooned from a franchise that originally started fairly small scale into this borderline high fantasy ARPG. The wonders of mobile gaming, eh? Devsisters has definitely had a mixed bag this year, and many fans seem to be clamouring for new, more player-positive content. Hopefully, the debut of Wind Archer and upcoming changes to the guild battle system will satisfy those calls.
