Neverness to Everness (NTE) 1.1 "Dreamwalk Corridor" went live on 6/3 — first half Lacrimosa (Chaos-element S-rank nightmare DoT main DPS), second half Chaos (Lakshana-element S-rank), the new Sunward Island map, the Dreamwalk Corridor main story, the Bagel system, and the Porsche 918 collab, all in one place.
Published: 2026/06/03
Quick answer: Neverness to Everness (NTE) 1.1 “Dreamwalk Corridor” officially went live on 2026/6/3. First half: Chaos-element S-rank nightmare DoT main DPS Lacrimosa (banner “When Long Dreams First Awaken,” 6/3–6/24); second half: Lakshana-element S-rank Chaos (roughly 6/24–7/8), with A-rank UP units Mint / Edgar / Adler, and no S-rank rerun this version. Launching alongside are the new Sunward Island map, the Dreamwalk Corridor main story, the Bagel system, and the Porsche 918 collab.
“Dreamwalk Corridor,” the first major update after the 1.0 open beta of Neverness to Everness (NTE), went live on June 3, 2026 on the TW/HK/MO / Global servers. Below is a summary of the confirmed, already-live content — precise numbers should still be taken from in-game data.
1.1 Banner Schedule (TW/HK/MO / Global)
| Phase | UP Character | Element / Rarity | Banner Period |
|---|---|---|---|
| First half | Lacrimosa | Chaos · S-rank main DPS | 6/3 – 6/24 |
| First-half A-rank UP | Mint, Edgar, Adler | A-rank | Same as first half |
| Second half | Chaos | Lakshana · S-rank | Approx. 6/24 – 7/8 |
ℹ️ Both 1.1 UP units are new playable characters; there is no S-rank rerun banner this version. The CN-server schedule differs (Lacrimosa from 5/28, Chaos from 6/18); if you see those dates they are for the CN server — TW/HK/MO players should follow the table above.
First-Half Banner: Lacrimosa
A Chaos-element, liquid-form S-rank main DPS. Lacrimosa was originally a story character in E.T.D’s 4th Squad; in 1.1 she becomes playable for the first time. She works through the “Nightmare” mechanic — her attacks stack Nightmare on enemies (up to roughly 10 stacks), and the higher the stacks, the more her damage-over-time ramps up in steps; her Ultimate detonates it over a wide area. She is a frontline DoT-type main DPS that excels in the “Dissonance” stagger-break burst archetype. Her signature Arc is “The Last Rose.”
⚠️ Before you pull: Lacrimosa leans toward being an “Eidolon warrior” — she scales with awakenings (especially A3) and teammate buffs, and feels merely average at 0 Eidolon with no signature weapon. The community’s recommended team is built mainly around Lacrimosa + Asagiri + Nanali / Mint; the officially suggested “Dafner + Lacrimosa” is only a transitional combo, so F2P players need not force a pull on Dafner for it. For full skill priority, team comps, and Eidolon planning, see the Lacrimosa Build Guide.
Second-Half Banner: Chaos
A Lakshana-element S-rank, ETD 6th Squad. ⚠️ Note: although the character name “Chaos” is the same word as the English name for the Chaos (暗) element, he himself is a Lakshana-element character, not nightmare/Chaos-element. His attacks accumulate “Charge” stacks, apply “Wanted Warrant” to enemies to increase the damage they take, and he can summon mist hounds to fight alongside him. His detailed role has not been fully revealed by the developers; we will update this site after the second half goes live. For an early preview, see the Chaos Build Guide.
New Map: Sunward Island × Dreamwalk Corridor
- Sunward Island: a seaside resort on the outskirts of Hytlo City, the main 1.1 area, with new commissions and collectibles.
- Dreamwalk Corridor: the new same-named main story this version, unlocked after completing the “Crimson Research” main story.
- New anomaly tour “Debt Collector”: unlocked after completing the Dreamwalk Corridor quest; a new high-danger commission “Mist Tracking” is also added.
New Systems and Modes
- Bagel system: the in-world photo-sharing social app is now fully integrated into the game — use the camera feature to post notes, share check-in spots, and interact via likes. You can claim rewards without any friends, and there is a new currency (“Bagel / Over-Praise Jam”). Bagel is a new system, not a new character.
- Fight Club: a new city mode supporting solo play or co-op for up to 4 players.
- Dark Racing: a multiplayer racing free-for-all where you can attack opponents or share a car in two-player mode.
- Porsche 918 Spyder collab: see below.
Porsche 918 Spyder Collaboration
For 1.1, the Porsche collaboration introduces the “Free to Roam” blind box, which can be pulled with Fonse or Crystals and contains the limited Porsche 918 Spyder racing car and collab vehicle skins. ⚠️ The 918 Spyder can only be obtained via the blind box and cannot be bought directly, so assess your pull cost yourself and defer to the in-game rules.
Update Compensation and Prep Tips
- Maintenance compensation: for the 1.1 maintenance compensation, defer to your in-game mailbox. (⚠️ The “Crystals ×300” circulating online is actually compensation for the 5/13 maintenance, and “Crystals 1600 + S-rank selector” is the launch gift pack — neither is the 6/3 1.1 compensation, so do not mix them up.)
- If you are aiming for Lacrimosa or Chaos, remember to make use of redemption codes and free event resources; use the pull-planner calculator to estimate your pull count.
⚠️ Reminder: (1) The “Lingering Rainbow / Crimson” circulating online belongs to post-1.2 community speculation and is not 1.1 content; (2) the redemption codes from the 1.1 preview stream (DREAMWALK0603 etc.) have expired — defer to the latest official / Bahamut announcements and do not reuse dead codes.

Frequently Asked Questions
When did Neverness to Everness 1.1 "Dreamwalk Corridor" go live? +
It went live on June 3, 2026 (TW/HK/MO / Global servers). The update is named "Dreamwalk Corridor" and brings the limited S-rank character Lacrimosa, the new Sunward Island map, and a Porsche collaboration.
Who are the first-half and second-half UP characters in NTE 1.1? +
The first half is the Chaos-element S-rank main DPS Lacrimosa, on the banner "When Long Dreams First Awaken," 6/3–6/24; the second half is the Lakshana-element S-rank Chaos, roughly 6/24–7/8. The first-half A-rank UP units are Mint, Edgar, and Adler. 1.1 has no S-rank rerun banner.
What element is Lacrimosa, and how does she work? +
Lacrimosa is a Chaos-element, liquid-form S-rank main DPS. Her attacks stack "Nightmare" on enemies (up to roughly 10 stacks), dealing damage-over-time (DoT) that ramps up in steps, and her Ultimate can detonate it all at once. Her signature Arc is "The Last Rose." Exact numbers should be taken from in-game data.
Is Lacrimosa worth pulling? How strong is she? +
Early on, the community widely placed her in the top tier (T0 / SS) as a frontline nightmare DoT main DPS. But note that she is something of an "Eidolon warrior" — she scales heavily with awakenings (especially A3) and with teammate buffs; at 0 Eidolon and with no signature weapon she feels merely average, and her power inflates mainly through investment (Eidolons / signature weapon). F2P players should weigh their resources before pulling.
Is Chaos a Chaos-element character? +
No. Although the character name "Chaos" is the same word as the English name for the Chaos (暗) element, Chaos himself is a "Lakshana" element character, ETD 6th Squad. He debuts on the second-half banner, and his official role has not been fully revealed yet. Do not confuse the two.
What new maps and modes does NTE 1.1 add? +
The new area is the seaside resort "Sunward Island," along with the main story "Dreamwalk Corridor"; new content includes the "Bagel" photo-sharing social system, the new anomaly tour "Debt Collector," the Fight Club, Dark Racing, and the Porsche 918 Spyder collaboration (the "Free to Roam" blind box).
