Beast of Reincarnation v1.1.02 Update Patch Notes
Fictions and Game Freak drop the final regularly scheduled update for Beast of Reincarnation, adding New Game+ equipment carrying, customizable outfits, and major bug fixes. Version 1.1.02 also introduces a Growth Boost feature and control upgrades for PC and PS5 controllers.
The ninth and final regularly scheduled post-launch update for Beast of Reincarnation is live. Version 1.1.02 delivers quality-of-life additions, including outfit changes at campsites, New Game+ carryovers for gear, and new growth mechanics for the Grow Chamber. The patch also tackles long-standing progression bugs and control issues on PC and console.
Progression and Quality of Life
Players can now change Emma’s outfit at Campsites and via the Bed Menu inside the Cleanse Walker after finding pattern variations during exploration. New Game+ now supports carrying over equipment, outfits, and skins. The Grow Chamber features a new Growth Boost that lets players spend boost uses earned from defeating enemies to speed up crop growth, alongside an auto-planting safeguard that ensures at least one seed goes into the ground if available.
Combat and Balance Adjustments
Bosses receive new attack moves and behavioral updates, while regular enemies and Nushis see stat and attribute rebalancing. Select Bloom Arts and Blade Arts have power adjustments. Ranged weapons can now be switched during regular attacks and Iaido stance. The Guard input changes to a continuous press-and-hold trigger. Slash attack targeting now aligns vertical pitch directly toward locked-on enemies.
Controls and Customization
Key configurations now feature an Entanglement Overdrive option for custom key rebinding, accompanied by warnings for overlapping hotkeys like lock-on and ammo slot switching. DualSense controllers on PC gain native support for touchpad controls and button icon displays.
Bug Fixes and Technical Stability
Version 1.1.02 resolves progression-halting bugs in Chapters 3, 10, and 11, including invisible walls, missing boss registration, and dark fields. Ultrawide monitor support receives fixes for disappearing HP bars, visual corruption in cutscenes, and reticle drift when aiming ranged weapons with aim assist off. Steam Deck loading control improvements reduce background asset pop-in and out-of-bounds falling.
Why this patch matters
Version 1.1.02 provides a stable, feature-complete stopping point for Beast of Reincarnation, smoothing out technical friction on ultrawide displays and handhelds while giving completionists better quality-of-life tools.
