Publisher holo Indie released a major summer update for Roboqlo's 'Puchi Horo no Mura - Sword, Shop, and Country Life' on August 24. The five FLOW GLOW members join as new villagers, and new elements include an affection system, a beach area, and nightly mini live performances. Melee weapons also received significant improvements. The game is available on PC via Steam.
The August 24 update adds Riona Hibiki, Kotokane Hiirako, Suzu Miyabi, Chihaya Rindo, and Kikirara Vivi as new villagers, each with their own themed furniture. A new affection system grows by fulfilling requests or giving presents, unlocking profile cards, flowers, furniture, and costumes. Profile cards come in designs unique to each Hololive member and are viewable in an encyclopedia.
The beach area opens after clearing Chapter 1 and is reachable by placing a Balloon Port in the village. Players can take photos with Hololive members, work part-time at a beach house to earn Shining Shells, and exchange those shells for items like a radio cassette player, glow sticks, and secret base tickets. A mini live is held every night on the beach, and players can swap which Hololive member performs.
