Gladio Mori patch notes
Quick answer
Advertisement
Gladio Mori's Halloween update is not a temporary event: the Hallowed Dungeon map, the Prisoner skin and the Prisoner's Machete are permanent additions, and the machete brings its own moveset. The developer says so explicitly — "these additions are permanent, and will not go away after a particular day" — which matters if you assumed a seasonal map would rotate out.
Details below are from the official patch posts (Hallowed Dungeon, and the 1.0.3.4 hotfix).
What the Hallowed Dungeon update added
| Addition | What it is |
|---|---|
| Map: The Dungeon | Narrow stone bridges leading to a tight arena, ringed by acid pools |
| Weapon: Prisoner's Machete | Two-handed rusted blade with its own moveset |
| Armor: Prisoner's Mask | 13 equipment points |
| Skin: Prisoner | Character skin, alongside the mask |
Two things follow from that map design:
- Falling is the real hazard. The bridges are narrow and the arena is small, so knockback that would be survivable elsewhere can put you in acid. If you play a shove-heavy moveset, this map rewards it more than any other.
- The demo gets a rotating Dungeon/Machete selection. This adds a fifth moveset alongside the existing four, without replacing them. Demo equipment remains locked, with skins and mods unavailable. Full-game permanence does not make the demo rotation permanent.
The machete's separate moveset is the part that changes matches: a two-handed weapon with unique swings means new timing to learn, not a reskin of an existing blade.
Hotfix 1.0.3.4 (1 October): the Pugilist revert
If you play Pugilist, this one matters:
- The Pugilist moveset changes were reverted.
- Special Attack 3 (hammer fist) was copied into block stance under action 2 (stab), so Special Attack 3 can now be used from Action 9 and, while blocking, from Action 2.
In plain terms: the hammer fist is reachable from more places than before, and the previous rework that players pushed back on is gone.
Before changing your loadout
- Re-check any Pugilist guide you are following — if it describes the reverted moveset, it is out of date.
- Try the supplied Machete moveset when it is in the demo rotation before adapting it to your own loadout. Check its travel and recovery beside the Dungeon’s narrow paths before using it in an online fight.
- Take the mask seriously as armor, not a costume. 13 equipment points is a real budget line.
FAQ
Is the Dungeon map temporary?
The full-game additions are permanent. Demo access follows its extra arena/moveset rotation and can cycle out at a later update.
How many equipment points is the Prisoner's Mask?
13.
Can demo players use the new content?
Yes, while they are in the demo rotation. The extra selection does not unlock equipment, skins or mods.
Did the Pugilist get buffed or reverted?
Reverted, with the hammer fist made reachable from Action 9 and from block stance via Action 2.
