According to the official plan, the game will be officially released in March. Compared to the test version, the official version will introduce a more complete growth system and richer gameplay mechanics, with ESPORTS and X402 being incorporated into the core design.

Most officials still believe a rate cut is possible later this year, but there is disagreement on when data will support it. (Jinshi)
