Leading the charge in the first title update is the return of Mizutsune, a fan-favorite dragon-type monster known for its aquatic habitats and bubble-based attacks that can inflict Bubbleblight. Its striking pink scales and purple fur not only make it a formidable foe but also a source of highly sought-after gear. While the trailer showed Mizutsune engaging with the new monster Doshaguma, its exact location in the game remains a mystery.
