The Celestial Butterfly Hunt System has been rebuilt from the ground up to deliver a smoother, smarter and more reliable experience. This rework improves the HUD, hunting nets, Companions, server synchronization and the entire foundation behind every Hunt.
Existing HUDs, supported hunting nets and eligible Companions will need to be updated for the new Hunt System. Companions must be upgraded to Version 2.0 to remain compatible with the new hunting architecture.
This is not only a visual update. It is a complete technical rebuild designed to make Hunts more stable, more responsive and ready for future gameplay expansions.
Most of the work happens behind the scenes, but players will feel the difference during every Hunt.
Hunt preparation has been improved to make the launch process smoother and more responsive.
The HUD now communicates more intelligently with the server and reflects player information more reliably.
Timer synchronization has been improved to reduce issues caused by lag or delayed communication.
All supported hunting nets are updated to work with the new Hunt Engine and future equipment logic.
Companions receive a new architecture designed for stronger compatibility, stability and future features.
The new system improves validation, server checks, transaction protection and error handling.
To use the new Hunt System, players will need the latest versions of their hunting equipment and compatible Companions.

When the update is officially released, in-world notices will explain how to update your HUD, your hunting nets and your eligible Companions.
Only hatched Companions will need to be upgraded to Version 2.0.
The hunting nets are no longer simple individual tools. They are now part of a cleaner, stronger and more consistent hunting system.
All updated hunting nets now share a common technical base. This makes the system easier to maintain, more stable and better prepared for future improvements.
Even if the nets now share the same foundation, each net keeps its own design, visual style and identity. Every catcher still feels unique in the world of Celestial Butterfly.
The new system improves how nets are detected, equipped and validated before a Hunt begins, reducing incorrect states and synchronization issues.
Old animations have been removed and replaced with a smoother sequence of up to 3 random standing animations per Hunt, selected from 12 mixed animations suitable for all avatars. Animations can still be disabled.
The reworked hunt flow includes stronger checks, safer validation and better protection against failed or incomplete hunt launches.
This new foundation makes it easier to add future nets, special hunt mechanics, advanced equipment features and new gameplay systems.
The Hunt result message has also been reworked. At the end of each Hunt, players now receive a cleaner, more complete and easier-to-read result summary, with all important information gathered in one single block.
The updated nets keep their own personality, appearance and magical identity, while now working through a shared technical foundation designed for stability, consistency and future expansion.
Each hunting net keeps its own visual identity, magical style and gameplay personality. The images below include the main details for each updated catcher.
Hatched Companions owned by players can be safely upgraded to Version 2.0 through the official Companion Updater system.
When the update is released, a dedicated Companion Update Room will be accessible from the Celestial HQ. Only players who own eligible hatched Companions will be able to enter and update their Companions.
Players will access the Companion Update Room directly from the Celestial HQ.
The system checks if the player owns at least one eligible hatched Companion.
A unique one-time token is generated for the selected Companion.
The player receives a Companion Upgrade Egg linked to that token.
The Companion becomes compatible with the new Hunt System.
Companions Eggs non-hatched do not need to be upgraded through this system. The update process is only required for hatched Companions owned by players.
The new architecture makes the Hunt System stronger, clearer and easier to expand.
Legacy hunt logic, older synchronization flow, limited Companion architecture and less flexible equipment validation.
Rebuilt Hunt Engine, improved server validation, Companion V2 support, smarter HUD synchronization and future-ready systems.
The release will be handled step by step to make the transition as smooth as possible.
The rebuilt hunt architecture becomes the new foundation of the system.
The updated HUD becomes required for the new Hunt preparation and synchronization flow.
All supported hunting nets receive compatibility updates for the new Hunt Engine.
Eligible Companions can be converted to Version 2.0 using the official upgrade process.
