Shortly after its release, developers Adglobe and Live Wire confirmed that Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist would be adding boss rush and New Game Plus modes with a post-launch update. That update has now arrived.
Patch 1.1.0 has gone live for the acclaimed Metroidvania action-adventure title, with a boss rush mode now available in the Memories menu- where, incidentally, players can now also have rematches against every boss they’ve encountered in the game. Boss rush and boss rematches both also give Fragments as rewards.
The aforementioned New Game Plus mode, meanwhile, is unlocked only after you’ve seen a “specific” ending, and will feature a new Relic upgrade level to keep your progression going. Beyond that, the update also adds new items in the gallery to purchase with Fragments, a couple of bug fixes, and more. You can check out the full patch notes below.
Ender Magnolia: Bloom in the Mist is available on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and PC. Read our review of the game through here.
