Cookie Run Kingdom Update 5.6 Delayed: Details Emerge

Cookie Run: Kingdom's Version 5.6 Update: A Controversial "Dark Resolution"

Cookie Run: Kingdom has announced its Version 5.6 update, "Dark Resolution's Glorious Return," packed with new content including Cookies, episodes, events, toppings, and treasures. However, the update has sparked significant controversy.

The Good:

Dragon Lord Dark Cacao Cookie: This Ancient+ Cookie, a Charge type frontline fighter, boasts an Awakened King skill featuring devastating attacks and a CRIT Resist debuff. A special Nether-Gacha increases the chance of obtaining him.
Peach Blossom Cookie: A new Epic Support Cookie that heals allies and provides DMG and Debuff Resist buffs.
New World Exploration Episode: Dark Cacao Cookie's story continues in "Dark Resolution's Glorious Return," featuring Yin and Yang battle stages.

The Bad and the Ugly:

The introduction of a new rarity tier, Ancient+, with a maximum 6-star promotion level, has angered players. This eleventh rarity, added instead of enhancing existing characters, is viewed as a cynical move to encourage spending. The Korean community and large spending guilds threatened a boycott, prompting developers to postpone the update (originally scheduled for June 20th) to reconsider the changes.

The developer's response to player feedback shows they are at least listening to concerns. The future of the Ancient+ rarity remains uncertain. Stay tuned for further updates.
