With the 1.5 patch, Tower of Fantasy gets a significant upgrade, including an entirely new area called the Artificial Island and a slew of new abilities, as well as new bosses, characters, weapons, and more.

Update 1.5, which was announced via Twitter with a video demonstrating some of the new content, will be released on September 15, just a month after the game's global release. These are the same verdant yet ruin-strewn plains as the base game.
The Interdimensional Frostfire Dragon, an enormous, flying mechanical dragon, is also shown, with a base-building system that appears to be a simpler version of the one found in open world survival and crafting games.
The main character Claudia, who is currently available as a Simulacra on the Chinese servers for Tower of Fantasy, isn't mentioned directly in the teaser, but she's prominently shown in the teaser, indicating that shell would be the third limited event banner Weapon following Frigg.
Tower of Fantasy content is likely to arrive quickly in the global version, given that it is on a much quicker schedule than the initial Chinese releases, likely so players will not have to wait long for further development in the West. There are also around a dozen additional Simulacra and Weapons that have not yet been released in the West, so there are months of updates waiting for fans to enjoy.
