What's New in Project 28
1.2.6
September 23, 2026
Mei now handles weapons with more natural grips and bent-elbow poses. Psychic casting has smoother gestures and recovery, without chest distortion. The psychic arsenal grows to 20 abilities, with stronger glow and clearer effects in the Armory and nighttime combat. Discover the devastating premium Singularity and Starfall powers. Every screen now wears the Armory look: the pause menu, HQ and structure sheets, community reports, skill selection, the night briefing, the build catalog and the dawn debrief share its glass panels, buttons and type. Build catalog: Armory structures can be unlocked straight from their dossier. If you are short on coins the button takes you to the Supply Terminal, and a bought blueprint goes straight to BUILD. Structures now say UNLOCK rather than BUY, since coins buy the blueprint and each structure is built for its own cost after. Title art corrected.
