That being said, the awaited 0.5 update for HoloCure is finally here!
It will be introducing two new collections of playable characters from holo JP Gen 1 & 2!
Although Shirakami Fubuki was introduced with holoGamers, the 0.5 update welcomes the rest of holoJP generation 1, introducing Akai Haato, Yozora Mel, Natsuiro Matsuri, and Aki Rosenthal.
holoJP generation 2 makes their entrance as well, introducing Yuzuki Choco, Oozora Subaru, Murasaki Shion, Minato Aqua, and Nakiri Ayame.
Many new systems will also be introduced in the update.
For a more in-depth list of HoloCure 0.5 updates, check out the HoloCure Twitter account.
One of the new systems in 0.5 will include the “Following Level” System.
Continuously playing individual characters may increase your Following Level of that character selected, up to “Fan” and “Oshi” levels. Benefits to this system include starting games with skills pre-leveled.
There are different ways to progress in this system, like raising G.Rank of the character with the Gacha (in-game currency), clearing stages a certain amount of times with the character, and/or clearing all stages with the character.

New System: RNG Bonus to items
Another system teased was an RNG system for items during level-ups. When you level up, you are given the chance to upgrade items or obtain new ones; with the new RNG system, there is now a chance to obtain a bonus roll on the item!
New System: Stamp Attachments
You can also attach Stamps looted from the ground to your main weapons. Only up to 3 stamps can be applied, but you can destroy or swap stamps out if you need to.
New System: Enchantments
Aside from Upgrades at an anvil, Enchants have been included as well. More information on this later.
Graphics Options: Attack Opacity
Other than game systems updates, there are updates to graphics with the introduction of the ‘Attack Opacity’ option. You can now reduce the opacity of attack effects if you prefer lesser effects on the screen.
2.0 Redesigned model for IRyS included!
Various other updates include more achievements, new collaborations, and an updated UI for the shop.
As of February 9, 2023, holoEN’s Takanashi Kiara, holoJP’s Yukihana Lamy, and holoID’s Kaela Kovalskia have played an early access version of the 0.5 update. Go check out their streams below!
