The update shows the game's design philosophy of treating Heterocity as a toy box that can accommodate entirely different genres of play, rather than simply expanding existing content.

Perfect World Games' NTE: Neverness to Everness received Ver.1.2 'Nine Hundred Ninety-Nine Nights' on July 11. The update adds the Draco bike, which can jump and rotate its wheels for sideways movement, and has no durability. It also introduces a board-game-style RPG mode where players enter a fantasy world with its own leveling and equipment systems. The update arrives one month after Ver.1.1.
The Ver.1.2 update for NTE: Neverness to Everness arrived on July 11, just one month after the previous major update. The patch adds two features that change how the city is navigated and what kind of game the player is in. The Draco bike has no durability, can jump over obstacles, and its wheels rotate sideways, allowing players to treat walls and cliffs as drivable surfaces. The Nine Hundred Ninety-Nine Nights mode is a separate fantasy RPG with its own leveling and loot system, accessed from a room in the city. The article notes that the bike and the RPG mode represent the game's tendency to throw new kinds of play into Heterocity without worrying about consistency.
