False Hero Update v26.6.5 Tweaks Hitboxes, Adds Mirror-Mode
False Hero patch v26.6.5 introduces a right-handed Mirror-Mode, UI scaling options, and refined hitboxes alongside numerous balance adjustments and bug fixes.
Patch v26.6.5 for False Hero brings substantial quality-of-life additions, including a Mirror-Mode for right-handed perspectives, adjustable UI scaling, and targeted combat adjustments designed to ease difficulty spikes.
New Features and Customization
Players can now toggle a Mirror-Mode to flip the game horizontally for a right-handed perspective or fresh playthrough. New UI scale settings allow status bars and enemy health elements to be resized, and the boss status bar can now be aligned at the top of the screen. Additionally, savefiles in the Load Game menu are now automatically sorted with recently opened files appearing at the top.
Combat Balancing and Adjustments
All demo hitboxes received a thorough pass to eliminate lingering or inconsistent collision boxes, while the Evasive Thrust hitbox size was increased. Boss stagger values and Ignorance Phase 2 stagger regeneration speed were slightly reduced, alongside a minor reduction in default player run speed, Flamethrower Combat Art damage, and boss poise. Scholars of Wisdom throw books less frequently, though their book projectiles feature an increased terrain-hit detection radius.
Bug Fixes and Stability
The update addresses an obscure Unity bug that caused crashes during 100% CPU usage involving particle spawning. Other fixes resolve an issue where players could never reach zero Knowledge Points through dying, out-of-bounds drops at the Edge of the Mountaintops Bloodspring, and an issue allowing players to stand in the air next to moving elevators. The Blade of Wisdom holding position was also adjusted for a more natural look.
Why this patch matters
This update directly addresses player feedback by smoothing out frustrating hitboxes, lowering specific difficulty hurdles, and adding practical UI customization.
