Mongil Star Dive: Mina Joins the Roster in the April 28 Update

Yato — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Mongil: Star Dive's April 28 maintenance window — running from 22:30 on April 28 to 01:00 on April 29 (UTC) — adds the new ★5 character Mina to the game alongside a round of system improvements.

Maintenance Compensation

Everyone who logs in between the end of maintenance on April 29 and May 1 at 14:59 UTC will receive the following from their Mailbox:

Compass of Promise × 1
Glimmering Stardust × 1

Make sure you log in before the window closes.

Who Is Mina?

Mina

Mina is the new ★5 Fire character added in this update. She attacks by hurling Foxfire Orbs and builds up an Essence stack mechanic that powers her kit as a fight progresses.

Her ultimate summons a clone that deals Fire DMG and applies Fire Affliction to targets, setting up follow-up damage from teammates or her own continuing rotation. Her passive also applies Charm on trigger, giving her a secondary layering of crowd control value.

For teams that already run Fire-aligned compositions, Mina slots in as a natural damage dealer with self-sustaining buff cycles via Essence.

What Else Is in the Update

Beyond Mina, the April 28 patch includes:

Monsterling Improvements — adjustments to the Monsterling system
Event Story Skip Feature — you can now skip event story cutscenes
New Events — fresh limited-time events launching with the patch
System Additions & Improvements — general QoL and backend changes
Bug Fixes & Other Adjustments

Dimension Rift Season Reminder

The current 「Sword of Utmost Hospitality」 Dimension Rift season ends on May 5 at 23:59 UTC. A new season opens on May 6 at 00:00 UTC, which will recharge the weekly free Rift Entry Tickets.

Use up any remaining free tickets before the season rolls over — they do not carry forward.

Pre-Registration Rewards

If you registered before launch, claim your welcome package from the in-game mailbox:

Redeem it from the in-game redeem code menu once your account has access to the required early-game systems.

Who Is Nanally?

Nanally

Nanally is the first limited character in Neverness to Everness, launching alongside the game. If you're planning to pull for her, you'll need Riftcrystals — the premium currency used for banners.

Nanally is playable as an Anomaly Hunter in Hethereau and is expected to be among the most sought-after characters at launch given her limited banner status.

How to Top Up via LootBar

If you need more Riftcrystals, Neverness To Everness Top-Up on LootBar lets you purchase in-game currency at competitive rates, with support for multiple payment methods and regions.

Why LootBar?

Unlock Mail early so your account can receive any Version 1.0 launch gifts and compensation.
Complete the Hethereau Residents Guide web event for additional free rewards.
Check official channels for new codes, event notices, and hotfix windows.
Pick your server carefully — there's no cross-server character transfer at launch.
PC players: note the 60 GB temporary extraction space requirement on top of the base install — make sure you have ~120 GB free before starting.

Mongil: Star Dive Bonus Time Issue Follow-Up Gives 2,500 Keys to Eligible Players

Yato — Wed, 29 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Netmarble has posted a second follow-up for the Mongil: Star Dive Bonus Time Event issue after the April 29 update. The response gives eligible players Key x2,500 through in-game mail and adds warnings for accounts that went beyond the normal Auto Clear limit.

The studio says the issue came from its side, so it is not recovering rewards or applying broad sanctions for this response.

Compensation

Eligible players will receive:

Key x2,500
Delivery method: in-game mail
Claim period: 4/29 (Wed) - 5/6 (Wed) 14:59 UTC

Accounts created after the April 29 update will not receive the reward.

Who Is Excluded

Netmarble says players who completed 101 or more Auto Clear attempts during the issue are outside the scope of normal gameplay, because the maximum number of Auto Clear attempts that can normally be performed at one time is 100.

Those players will receive additional warnings and are excluded from the Key x2,500 compensation.

What Players Should Know

If your account is eligible, the important deadline is May 6 at 14:59 UTC. The reward is sent through mail, so claim it before the mail or claim period expires.

The notice also says future issues may be handled under the game's Terms of Service without prior warning, so this follow-up should not be read as a permanent policy for similar bugs.

NTE Launch Drift Discord Quest: How to Get 700 Discord Orbs

Discord requirement: the Discord client must be open
End time: May 5, 2026 at 23:59 (UTC)

NTE Is Giving Out 1,600 Annulith and a Free S-Class Selector

Yato — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Neverness to Everness is adding two extra launch gifts for Version 1.0 players: 1,600 Annulith and an S-Class Standard Character Selection Box.

This is more than a small login bonus. The Annulith is worth a full 10-pull, while the selector can help new accounts fix an early roster gap without relying only on standard banner luck.

Key Details

Annulith x 1,600 will be delivered through in-game Mail on April 30, 2026 at 14:00 (UTC+8).
S-Class Standard Character Selection Box x 1 will be delivered through in-game Mail by May 3, 2026 at 18:00 (UTC+8).
Players need to create a character and unlock the in-game Mail feature before Version 1.0 ends.
The rewards are tied to the official global launch period, which began on April 29, 2026.

What to Do First

Log in, finish the early tutorial until Mail unlocks, and claim the gifts from your mailbox when they arrive. If you are rerolling, make sure the account you plan to keep reaches Mail access before the Version 1.0 eligibility window closes.

If the selector lets you choose from the standard S-Class pool, do not rush the pick on day one. Claim your launch rewards, redeem active codes, spend any planned early pulls, then use the selector to fill the biggest missing role on your account.

How Valuable Is This?

The 1,600 Annulith gift is straightforward: it equals one 10-pull worth of premium currency. For players aiming at Nanally or saving for a future limited banner, that is a clean boost without spending.

The selector is the bigger account-building piece. A guaranteed standard S-Class can stabilize your first team or help build toward a second team later. Based on early 1.0 roster needs, the best choice will usually depend on what your account is missing:

Need a damage dealer: look for a standard DPS that complements your free units.
Need team utility: prioritize a support, buffer, sustain unit, or crowd-control option.
Already pulled strong S-Class units: wait before picking a duplicate unless you know the Awakening value is worth it.

Because the official post names the item as a Standard Character Selection Box, players should confirm the exact in-game pool before committing.

NTE Launch Creation Event: Rewards, Dates, and How to Enter

Yato — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Neverness to Everness has opened its official launch creator event, giving players a reason to turn their first week in Hethereau into guides, fan art, videos, screenshots, or other community work.

The event is aimed at creators posting NTE Global Launch-themed content on TikTok, YouTube, X, or Instagram. Valid entries can earn an exclusive in-game avatar, while selected winners can receive up to 6,480 Annulith.

Event Schedule

Submissions: April 30, 2026 at 11:00 AM to May 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM (UTC+8)
Judging: June 1, 2026 at 12:00 PM to June 15, 2026 at 11:59 PM (UTC+8)
Results: June 16, 2026 at 12:00 PM to June 24, 2026 at 11:59 PM (UTC+8)
Rewards distribution: starts June 30, 2026

How to Enter

Create original NTE launch content, post it on one of the supported platforms, and include both required hashtags:

#NTE
#NTEcreator

After posting, submit the entry through the official Google form linked in the announcement. The NTE team notes that each form submission should contain only one work link, so creators with multiple entries need to submit them separately.

Entries must be original work created within the last 30 days. Raw unedited footage, simple compilations of official assets, AI-generated content, reposts, and entries missing the required hashtags do not qualify.

Rewards

Each category uses the same reward structure:

Outstanding Work Award: 6,480 Annulith for 50 winners, plus a Taygedo avatar icon.
Lucky Draw Award: 1,000 Annulith for 200 winners.
Participation Award: exclusive Nanally Chibi Avatar for all valid entries.

The Lucky Draw pool can expand as participation increases: for every 500 additional participants, 200 more winning slots are added, up to a maximum of 1,000 winners.

Important Rules

The official rules call out plagiarism, reposting old work, duplicate entries across accounts, inappropriate content, copyright infringement, and artificially inflated view counts as disqualifying issues. Winners may also be asked to provide analytics screenshots to verify organic engagement.

Creators should also expect the NTE team to feature or share submitted works on official channels as part of the event.

Mongil: Star Dive May Login Event Gives Upgrade Stone and Entry Tickets

Yato — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Mongil: Star Dive is running a May Surprise Log-in Rewards Event with daily mail rewards from the notice posting on April 30 through May 5 at 01:59 UTC.

Rewards are tied to specific login windows. Each reward can be claimed once per account, and missed days cannot be claimed later.

Event Schedule

Reward claim period (UTC)	Reward
After notice posting on 4/30 (Thu) - 5/1 (Fri) 01:59	Blue Upgrade Stone x1
5/1 (Fri) 02:00 - 5/2 (Sat) 01:59	Conquest Entry Ticket x1
5/2 (Sat) 02:00 - 5/3 (Sun) 01:59	Rift Entry Ticket x1
5/3 (Sun) 02:00 - 5/4 (Mon) 01:59	Conquest Entry Ticket x1
5/4 (Mon) 02:00 - 5/5 (Tue) 01:59	Rift Entry Ticket x1

How to Claim

Log in during the active reward window and check Mail. Netmarble says rewards are only delivered when logging in during the designated time period.

Expired or deleted mail rewards cannot be restored through support, according to the event notice.

What Players Should Know

The event is simple, but the timing matters. The two Rift Entry Ticket and Conquest Entry Ticket windows are separated by daily reset-style time blocks, so logging in once at the end of the event will not recover earlier rewards.

Mongil: Star Dive April 30 Live Patch Improves Mina's Controls

Yato — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Mongil: Star Dive received a live patch on April 30 at 11:00 UTC focused on the new character Mina. The patch was applied without a separate maintenance window, but Netmarble says players should restart the game and download the additional data to apply the changes.

This is a follow-up to Mina's April 28 release update, and it targets combat usability rather than adding new content.

Mina Changes

Mina

The April 30 live patch adjusts Mina in five specific ways:

Reduced the pre-action delay of her Basic Attack 1st Hit.
Reduced the pre-action delay of her Special Skill.
Reduced transition time between Basic Attacks, Special Skill, and Switch Skill.
Reduced the time needed to reach Basic Attack 4th Hit after an Air Counter or Landing Evasion Counter.
Added Super Armor to her Special Skill and Basic Attack 3rd Hit.

Netmarble later added one more note to the same notice at 12:24 UTC: Mina can now dodge immediately before reaching Basic Attack 4th Hit.

What Players Should Know

The patch does not change Mina's listed role or add new rewards. Its practical effect is smoother access to her attack chain and better action stability during parts of her combo, especially around Special Skill, Basic Attack 3rd Hit, and the route into Basic Attack 4th Hit.

If Mina still feels unchanged after logging in, restart the game first. Netmarble states the improvements apply after downloading the additional patch data.

Mongil: Star Dive 2026 Roadmap Reveals Narae, Nagi, Episode 6, and a New Code

Yato — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Netmarble has shared the Mongil: Star Dive 2026 first-half roadmap, covering planned updates through July. The official roadmap highlights two named characters, a new story episode, a new Legendary Monster Conquest, system improvements, summer content, and a limited redeem code.

The roadmap is still marked as in development, so some content names may change before release. The concrete items Netmarble listed are below.

Roadmap Highlights

Ver. 1.1.0 is planned to include:

New characters: Narae and Nagi
Episode 6
Legendary Monster Conquest: Reginula
New events
Monsterling Filter / Combine improvements
Equipment Salvage improvements

Ver. 1.2.0 is planned to include:

A new Swimsuit character
One additional new character listed as TBA
A Summer Event
New events
The Dispatch system
Further improvements

New Redeem Code

Netmarble also included a gift code with the roadmap:

Code: SPECIALGIFT0430
Reward: Blue Upgrade Stone x1
Claim period: Until 5/7 (Thu) 14:59 UTC

Players can redeem the code from Mongil: Star Dive's code redemption flow before the listed deadline.

What Players Should Know

The most useful part of this roadmap is the Ver. 1.1.0 lineup: Narae, Nagi, Episode 6, and Reginula give players a clearer picture of where the next character and progression updates are heading.

For now, avoid treating the Ver. 1.2.0 character details as final. Netmarble only confirmed one swimsuit character and one TBA character, without naming either unit in this notice.

Mongil: Star Dive May 5 Maintenance: Season Reset, Event Ends, and Field Monster Fix

Yato — Mon, 04 May 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Mongil: Star Dive will go offline for a short temporary maintenance window on May 5 at 23:30 UTC, with the work scheduled to finish on May 6 at 00:30 UTC.

This maintenance matters because it lines up with the Dimensional Rift and Monster Race season change. Players should claim outstanding rewards and spend free Rift entries before the reset.

Maintenance Schedule

Start: May 5, 2026 at 23:30 UTC
End: May 6, 2026 at 00:30 UTC
Expected duration: 1 hour
Game status: unavailable during maintenance

Netmarble says the schedule can change depending on circumstances.

What Changes

The maintenance includes the Dimensional Rift and Monster Race season change.

Unclaimed Dimensional Rift High Score Rewards and Monster Race Race Rewards will not be distributed separately after the season reset, so claim them before maintenance begins.

After the Monster Race reset, currently available rewards such as badges and track mission rewards will change.

Events Ending

The event stage for Welcome to the Maid & Clover Inn ends with this maintenance, but the shop, story, and missions remain available until May 12, 2026 at 23:59 UTC.

These events also end with the May 6 maintenance:

Calm Before the Storm, Premium Maid Service
Anomaly: El Dorado Guardian
Capture Event: Monsterling Research Deep Dive!
An Invitation for a New Encounter

If you still have event rewards to claim, finish them before the servers go down.

Field Monster Respawn Fix

The patch also fixes an issue where field monsters could respawn under certain conditions, including cases such as the 1st Request Boss Monster.

Netmarble says it will share separate details later about verification and measures for affected players. Until that follow-up is posted, the official notice does not confirm compensation or account-specific handling.

Rift Ticket Reminder

The Sword of Utmost Hospitality Dimensional Rift season ends on May 5 at 23:59 UTC.

The new Dimensional Rift season starts on May 6 at 00:00 UTC, when the weekly 3 free Rift Entry Tickets are recharged. Netmarble recommends using all free Rift Entry Tickets before maintenance begins.

Mongil: Star Dive Developer Lounge Q&A: Ver. 1.1.0 Fixes and Future Plans

Yato — Wed, 06 May 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Netmarble has published an English summary of the Mongil: Star Dive Developer Lounge Talk, covering the April 30 broadcast and answering several player questions about upcoming fixes and longer-term systems.

Some parts repeat already known roadmap details, including the late May Ver. 1.1.0 update and early July Ver. 1.2.0 plans. The new value is in the Q&A: Netmarble directly addressed Premium Salmon Puree, Monsterling acquisition, enhanced equipment salvage, practice content, Field Run fatigue, character interaction features, and skins.

Key Details

Broadcast date: April 30, 2026 at 10:00 UTC
Forum summary date: May 6, 2026
Replay: Developer Lounge Talk on YouTube
Main confirmed update window: Ver. 1.1.0 is scheduled for late May
Source: official Netmarble forum

Ver. 1.1.0 and Roadmap Notes

The summary repeats the first-half 2026 roadmap: Episode 6: Flowers Blooming Through Scars, Narae, Nagi, and Legendary Monster Conquest: Reginula are planned for Ver. 1.1.0 in late May.

Netmarble also says Ver. 1.1.0 will include further Monsterling filter/combine improvements and additional improvements to enhanced equipment salvage.

Ver. 1.2.0 is planned for early July. The summary lists swimsuit characters, additional unrevealed characters, the Dispatch System, summer special events, Monsterling acquisition events, and new-character events for that update period.

Q&A Highlights

Netmarble says it is still reviewing new sources for Premium Salmon Puree, but plans to provide additional Puree through events and other in-game operations for now. The team also says it is reviewing suggestions such as adding Threads of Destiny and Threads of Promise as shop items.

For Monsterlings, the team says Crit Rate and Crit Damage Boost Monsterlings should become more useful when new growth elements and additional content updates arrive. Netmarble also plans to prepare events that help players obtain Monsterlings before the Dispatch System is added in July.

The enhanced equipment salvage issue is planned to be resolved in Ver. 1.1.0. Netmarble apologized for missing this in the previous update.

The team also says it wants to add practice content, such as a training dummy for measuring character damage or practicing with newly obtained characters, as soon as possible.

Field Run, Character Interaction, and Skins

Netmarble says it is working on ways to reduce the need to traverse the entire field when acquisition rates are low. It also named Monsterling auto-lock and a filter function for locked Monsterlings as May update improvements.

Character interaction features are still in planning and development. The summary mentions stronger event stories, sub-character stories, and possible Affinity-style systems, but does not give a release date for them.

For skins, Netmarble says it is still deliberating. The current focus is adding new characters rather than skin releases.

Starting from the next new character, Awakening will no longer be required as a condition to unlock various motions.

Gift Code Note

The Developer Lounge summary also lists SPECIALGIFT0430 for Blue Upgrade Stone x1, with a redemption period ending on May 7, 2026 at 14:59 UTC.

NTE Team Responds to AI-Assisted Background Asset Feedback

Yato — Thu, 07 May 2026 02:00:00 +0200

The Neverness to Everness team has issued an official response to player feedback about AI-assisted assets in the game.

According to the statement, NTE's characters, stories, and world are created by artists, writers, and designers. The team says AI-assisted tools were used only on a small number of background and environmental assets, not on the characters or story content that define the game.

Key Details

Topic: official response to AI-assisted asset feedback
Confirmed scope: a small number of background and environmental assets
Not included, according to the statement: characters and stories
Flagged assets named by the team: "Clear Skies in Summer" and "Pink Paws Heist"
Next step from the team: those flagged assets are being reviewed and reworked

The statement does not give a patch date for the reworked assets, and it does not list every asset affected.

What Players Should Know

This is not a balance change, event, code, or compensation notice. Its value is mainly transparency: the team has acknowledged the feedback, named the two flagged assets it is reviewing, and limited the confirmed AI-assisted usage to specific background and environmental work.

For now, there is no player action attached to the statement. The official post only asks players to keep sending feedback.

NTE Letter from Hethereau Reward: 10 Fabricated Dice After May 13 Maintenance

Yato — Thu, 07 May 2026 02:00:00 +0200

Neverness to Everness has announced a small Letter from Hethereau reward for launch-period players: 10 Fabricated Dice delivered through in-game mail after the next maintenance.

The reward is tied to the official "To My Precious~" post on X. The post is mostly written as an in-universe note, but the important part for players is the eligibility rule: your account needs a created character and access to the Mail feature before Version 1.0 ends.

Key Details

Reward: Fabricated Dice x10
Delivery: sent via in-game mail after the May 13, 2026 maintenance
Eligibility: create a character and unlock the Mail feature before Version 1.0 ends
Source: official NTE Global X account

The post does not list an exact mail delivery time beyond "after the May 13, 2026 maintenance," and it does not mention a redeem code.

What Players Should Do

If you are playing during Version 1.0, make sure your character is created and the Mail feature is unlocked before the version ends. That is the only requirement stated in the official post.

The reward is Fabricated Dice, so this is worth claiming if you are still building launch resources or saving pull currency for upcoming banners.

Hotori Kit Reveal: NTE's Time-Stopping Cosmos Sub DPS

Yato — Sat, 09 May 2026 02:00:00 +0200

NTE has posted the official Containment Rehearsal for Hotori, releasing her full combat kit data. She's a 5★ Cosmos Sub DPS whose kit is built around Time Stop — she freezes surrounding action with her Ultimate, and her passive keeps Blossom reaction damage running through the freeze.

What Hotori Does

Hotori

Hotori's mechanics revolve around the Non-Closed Timepiece energy gauge that charges over time and through combat.

World's Tide (Ultimate): Spends full Timepiece energy, deals Cosmos DMG, draws the katana, and slows surrounding time to near-standstill. Hotori builds combo stacks with katana attacks during Time Stop; at 10 stacks, a final Cosmos DMG burst ends the state.
Present Replay (Skill): Requires 60 Timepiece energy. Deals Cosmos DMG and records Support and Redirect Skills used by allies over the next 5 seconds — up to 3 timings, one per character. A follow-up cast replays those skills, effectively doubling off-field contributions. Resets when entering a new use.
Shopkeeper's Authority (QTE): Deals Cosmos DMG.
Misty Moon Style (Basic): Deals Cosmos DMG.

Her standout passive, Ghost Orchid Crest, prevents Vita Bud attacks from pausing during Time Stop — Blossom reaction damage continues uninterrupted while the rest of the field is frozen.

What Players Should Know

Ghost Orchid Crest's interaction with Vita Bud attacks during Time Stop is her primary pull argument over other Cosmos options in the current roster.
