Summary
v2.6.0 (July 10, 2026) delivered the teased HIKAKIN Museum collaboration stage, controller support alpha, expanded region tags, a clone collision fix, and a Hunter FOV bump. The live public branch is now v2.7.0 (Egypt map + random-map toggles).
Confirm the build string on the title screen matches your lobby. Official wording: Steam news hub.
What changed
1. Collaboration map — HIKAKIN Museum
The HIKAKIN Museum official stage is live with collaboration-exclusive gimmicks. Host it from the official map list once everyone is on v2.6.0+.
2. Controller support — alpha
Controller support alpha landed for in-match input. UI operation is not supported — expect keyboard/mouse for menus, server browser, and paint-wheel fine tuning until a follow-up patch.
See Controls and Gamepad Not Detected if pads fail to register.
3. Region tags — Japan, South Korea, East Asia
Server creation adds Japan, South Korea, and East Asia region tags for clearer matchmaking filters.
4. Clone — hidden collision fix
Fixed collision detection not disappearing when the clone was hidden. Decoy bait should feel cleaner — see Clone System.
5. Hunter FOV — 100 → 105
Hunter field of view default increased from 100 to 105. Hiders who relied on edge-of-frustum spots may need to retest.

- Host a new lobby before testing HIKAKIN Museum.
- Controller users: keep a keyboard nearby for UI until full controller UI ships.
- If friends cannot join: Invite Not Working or Version Mismatch.
