Atlus has released Soul Hackers 2 update 1.02, adding a much-needed dash functionality and more.

Here’s a rundown on the new update:

Dash function

• A “Dash” function has been added to Ringo’s movement.
• The user can toggle between “Normal” and “Dash” at will. While in Dash Mode, Ringo’s walking and slashing speeds will increase.
• Due to the addition of the dash function, the effect of the Summoner Skill “Assassin’s Steps” has been changed to: “For a given distance, enemies will ignore Ringo.”

Fast Battle Mode

• A “Speed Up” mode has been added to battles. Players may freely toggle between normal and high-speed combat.

Adjustments

• Adjusted how long loading-screen tips are shown.
• Changed the flow of on-screen prompts during soul level increase to reduce the risk of incorrect input from accidental button presses.
• Added the ability to teleport directly to shops from the City Map.
• Adjusted enemy spawn rate in dungeons.
• Adjusted skill inheritance rates during demon fusion.
• Other minor changes.

Other changes

• Added four new demons: Pixie (Soul Hackers Ver.), Neko Shogun, Aitvaras, and Isis.
• Note: The above bonus demons do not count toward the Registration Percentage in the Demon Compendium or the achievement “Compendium Completionist”.
