2.6.1 — Day 17 Update

Maldhalla · published 1 Nov 2026, 06:12 UTC · build 26347677

Hi, EyeJoker here.

In late runs with many blessings, the level-up and altar screens stall less when they open. The altar opens in about a third of the time.
Fixed a stall every second while the level-up screen stays open.
Fixed the game slowing to a crawl when the Death Scythe has a big Area bonus.
Other optimizations in several places.

The benchmark board has its own Benchmark tab on the Leaderboard.
The benchmark result has one button, Upload to Leaderboard. An upload also earns you benchmark titles.
New benchmark titles and the Lord of Perdition title appear on the title screen like season titles.
On the benchmark board, the #1 of each CPU shows a gold star beside the CPU.

Export a replay as a file from Replay History, and open a replay file someone sent you to watch it.
An opened file is not added to your history and is not ranked.

New sound setting: Mute in Background. Off by default.
When an attack reaches a wall, enemy warnings, coins, gems and chest glows beside it are no longer hidden by that wall.
The HP bar turns red and blinks from 30% of your max HP, when low-HP blessings turn on.
The weapon info in a run shows its cooldown with your cooldown and attack speed bonuses.
The arrow on the minimap and the full map points the way you last moved, at any angle.
Damage reduction, evasion and move speed show as whole percents on the HUD, character select and stats window.
New skill icons for Sword Rain, Shield Parry, Wildbloom and Judgment.
Character select: every character's growth line has the same layout.

Fixed numbers in three skill descriptions that did not match the game.
Fixed getting Souls twice when two devices ended the same run and their cloud saves merged.
Fixed your last progress not reaching the server backup when you quit right after Steam refused a sign-in.
Fixed renamed skills showing with their old variants in a run continued from before 2.6.0.
Other skill and display bugs.
