"We’ll have more to sharꩵe about the story of Iki soon, but today we can confirm that beyond a whole new story and new characters, this new island also features♚ tons of new content including brand new environments to explore, new armor for Jin as well as his horse, new mini-games, new techniques, new enemy types, and much more," . "There are even new animals to pet!"
