Nightmare Arena Rework
The rotation period for Guest Players and the Dream Shard Exchange Shop will now update every 2 weeks.
Note: For the very first cycle immediately following this revamp, the rotation will occur after 1 week.
An issue has been identified where users cannot return to the previous screen if they press the back button without saving their changes in the Arena Deck configuration screen. ※ A fix for this issue is included in version 7.4.106, which is currently under store review and will be released as soon as it is approved.
Hello,
The content mode Nightmare Arena will be receiving a rework.Nightmare Arena was originally designed as a challenging mode where players lead a team of randomly selected athletes, repeatedly choosing new players and abilities while progressing through a series of consecutive matches. However, during development prior to release, we decided to prioritize the value of players owned by users and adjusted the system to provide greater freedom in team building. As a result, players were able to fill their roster with only their preferred athletes, but we felt this created some distance from the gameplay experience Nightmare Arena was originally designed to deliver. This rework aims to preserve the value of players owned by users while better bringing out the randomness and enjoyment of making choices that Nightmare Arena was originally designed around. As team-building restrictions become more important, we have made various changes across multiple systems to reduce the burden of the early stages and provide a clearer sense of progression throughout each run. We hope these changes will help Nightmare Arena stand out as a more unique and engaging game mode.This update is scheduled to be applied on June 24 (KST). Please note that any Nightmare Arena run currently in progress will be reset when the update is implemented.■ Dream Shard • Most effects that previously activated based on chance will now activate whenever their conditions are met.• Activation conditions and effects have been simplified, and overall effectiveness has been increased.• A limited-time shop has been added to the Arena Point Exchange, allowing players to unlock Dream Shards.• Players will now be able to build a deck by selecting 30 or more Dream Shards from those they own and choose which deck to use when starting a Nightmare Arena run.• During a Nightmare Arena run, only Dream Shards included in the currently selected deck will appear in random selection options.
• All players will be granted 30 basic Dream Shards.■ Reserve Players & Guest Players • The reserve roster must now be filled with 5 players for each position before a Nightmare Arena run can be started.• 4 Guest Players have been added for each position. Guest Players can be used in Nightmare Arena regardless of whether you own those players.• Guest Players will be updated every two weeks. When the Guest Player lineup is updated, all Nightmare Arena progress will be reset.
■ Permanent Upgrade Changes and Additions • The "Dream Shard Activation Chance +10%" upgrade item previously sold in the Arena Point Exchange has been removed. • Players who previously purchased the "Dream Shard Activation Chance +10%" upgrade will receive a refund of the Arena Points spent via in-game mail. • A new "Dream Shard Reroll Count +1" upgrade item has been added to the Arena Point Exchange Shop.• The "Dream Shard Reroll Count +1" upgrade item grants one additional free Dream Shard reroll for each copy owned. Any unused free rerolls are reset at the start of each round.• The rotation period for Guest Players and the Dream Shard Exchange Shop will now update every 2 weeks.
Note: For the very first cycle immediately following this revamp, the rotation will occur after 1 week.
■Gameplay Adjustments
• The duration of naturally occurring conditions in Nightmare Arena has been reduced.• At the start of each rally in Nightmare Arena, the Stamina recovery granted to the team that scored will be further reduced.• The maximum Stamina loss your team can suffer at one time has been adjusted according to the selected difficulty level.• On DRIFT and DOZE difficulties, opposing players will attempt fewer spikes targeting the end line or areas near the net.• The stats and abilities of certain opposing players have been adjusted.• New opponent teams have been added.• Stages 1 and 2 of each round have been changed to first-to-3-point matches, and rank score requirements have been adjusted accordingly.• Replacing a player when selecting a Dream Shard will now grant an additional Dream Shard. ■ Bug Fixes• Fixed an issue in the Counter Receive rule where receiving while in a blocking state would always result in a Perfect Receive.• Fixed an issue where the shadows of certain players were not displayed correctly when using Experimental Graphics settings.• Fixed an issue where the Arena Point icon was not displayed in the mailbox.• Fixed an issue where a character's signature motion would still trigger when wearing a different uniform with the default skin applied.
We will continue striving to provide an even better gameplay experience through future improvements and updates. Thank you for your continued support.Bug Fixes

• When you obtain Dream Shards, each shard grants a specific effect that strengthens your team.
• At the start of each stage, you are given 3 Dream Shard choices. You must select one before the match begins.• Obtaining the same Dream Shard increases its level (Lv), making its effect stronger.• If none of the available Dream Shards are suitable, you can spend V-Points to reroll and get new options.• If a “Shared Dream” occurs, you will receive a player substitution opportunity and +1 additional Dream Shard choice.Some Dream Shards also have synergistic effects that become stronger when combined with each other.Build your own combination of Dream Shards and overcome the nightmare!※ All obtained Dream Shards are retained throughout your run in the Nightmare Arena.5.

Hello,
Thank you as always for enjoying The Spike Cross.
We would like to share details about the upcoming 6.6.102 update and its changes.
Although extensive testing has been conducted over a long period,
some instability may occur in the early stages due to the scale of these changes.
If you encounter any issues or inconveniences while playing,
please share your feedback so the development team can review and address them as quickly as possible.

Added AI usage settings
Added frame rate options (45fps, 60fps, 120fps)
Added a variable frame rate option
Removed the low-spec mode option
Adjusted player receive range and sliding range

Improved swing timing for all players whose animation and actual hit timing were misaligned

Fixed an issue where achievements (Inhibitor) would fail even when Zinc activated on our team

We will continue striving to deliver even more enjoyable content.
Thank you.
The judgment method for player receive range and sliding range has been updated in this patch.
Previously in The Spike Cross,
defense success was calculated based on the distance between the ball and the player’s position.
However, with the addition of multiple FPS support,
this method began causing inconsistencies where judgment results varied depending on frame intervals.
This led to issues with the frequency of no-touch scoring and inconsistent defensive judgments,
making it difficult for the system to fully manage gameplay fairness.
To ensure long-term balance and a stable PvP environment, this improvement was necessary.
With this update, defensive range and sliding range are now determined based on
whether the player reaches the ball’s landing point at the moment it touches the ground.
As a result:
Ball penetration issues during receive situations have been improved
Teams with lower speed stats may experience no-touch situations more frequently
We have carefully adjusted the system to maintain gameplay feel and balance as close to the previous experience as possible.
If you notice any discomfort or balance concerns while playing,
please feel free to share your feedback with us at any time.
1. Added mobile haptic feedback support
- Added vibration (haptic) feedback during gameplay on supported mobile devices.
- This feature can be found in In-Game Settings → Play.
2. Fixed crash when using Simplified Chinese language setting
- Resolved an issue where the game would close unexpectedly while playing Story 1-1 Part B when the language was set to Simplified Chinese.
3. Fixed in-game model part issue for Rudolph Lisia Skin
- Fixed an issue where the skirt part was not displayed correctly when the Rudolph Lisia Skin was equipped.
4. Fixed Premium Pass reward display issue
- Fixed an issue where the amount of V-point currency was not displayed in the Zero to One Premium Pass.
We will continue striving to provide even more enjoyable content in the future.
Thank you.
