· News was announced during the April 3rd developer live stream that PD Kim Mi-han has stepped down and a new PD has been appointed.
· This live stream was the shortest update announcement ever, with most of the content focused on the K-Pop Demon Hunters (KDH) update.
· The new PD stated that they aim to create a more vibrant and fun Kingdom with new attempts and directions.

· Lumi Cookie will be released as a playable character, not a Guest Cookie.
· She is a Special rarity, expected to be available through a dedicated gacha.
· When using her skill, she creates a weapon in her hand before battle.

· Joy Cookie's design perfectly reflects her agile image from the original work.
· At the start of battle, she summons divine blades to fight, launching multiple blades to attack.
· It is expected that her Arena utility will be low as her skill doesn't seem to hit many times and her damage doesn't appear strong.

· Sazaboys Cookie will be released as a Guest-tier Cookie.
· Guest-tier Cookies are non-playable Cookies that appear active in the Kingdom but are not used in battle.
· They can be obtained through gacha, and Duffy and Seo Cookies are also scheduled to be released as Guest-tier Cookies.
· Duffy and Seo are likely to be sold as a package.

· Hunters Cookie skins will be released, but questions were raised about their efficiency since they are for Guest-tier Cookies.
· However, if everyone can obtain them through events, it shouldn't be a major issue.
· This event will involve obtaining rewards by using a guitar in a special episode.
· It is expected that feathers can be filled by watching ads or through the shop.

· In the special episode, rewards such as crystals can be obtained by opening notes.
· The battle scenes are said to have implemented backgrounds and other elements to maximize the original work's battle atmosphere.
· While users unfamiliar with the original work might find it hard to relate, fans of the original may be satisfied.

· Infinite Survival Hunters Live: This content involves forming a party of three Cookies and receiving rewards based on damage dealt. Cookies can be swapped during battle depending on the situation.
· Lumi and Duffy's Tower: This has been changed to a jump game similar to the existing Jungle Warrior content.
· Duffy's Bean Tree Catch: This is a mini-game similar to Whac-A-Mole.

· The Duffy and Seo Landmark is scheduled to be released and is expected to come as a paid package.
· A new background will also be sold as a package, estimated to cost around 44,000 won.

· Rewards can be obtained by entering the coupon code revealed during the live broadcast.
· The coupon's expiration date was incorrectly listed as March 23, 2026, but is actually expected to be valid until April 23.
