A new update has arrived for Coral Island. There's a lot of new features to enjoy. It's called the Romance Update so that should give players an idea of what to expect.
Players should be happy to know that all romanceable NPCs now go up to Heart Level 15. In addition, Level 11 to 15 are unlocked after marriage. Those able to reach Heart Level 12 can unlock special post-marriage cutscenes that explore life beyond the wedding. There's also new post-marriage hangout events for each romanceable character.
Revamped Romance Progression
The update makes an interesting revamp on the romance progression. It's known as the Heart-Locking System and should add more depth as well as introduce more meaning to the relationship. Basically, advancing the relationship isn’t just about reaching the right heart level but also about creating memorable moments along the way.
Here’s how the new system works:
- Heart Level 1–5: Hangout events unlock between levels 2-4. Watch all of them to reach level 6.
- Heart Level 6–8: Things are getting serious!. More hangouts unlock. Complete all events to reach level 9.
- Heart Level 9–10: Love is in the air. Four final heart events appear. Finish all before proposing with the Diamond Ring.
The update also introduces a new relationship UI that shows which NPCs have new heart events. Players can also now click on an NPC to see if any hangout events are available.
Other Improvements
Additional improvements that came with the new update are:
- Hangout System: New hangout cutscenes have been added for all romanceable characters.
- Festivals: Added a picnic state to the Tree Planting Festival (after completing all areas).
- Festivals: Added notifications for Winter Festival start and end.
- Ranching: Barns and coops can now be upgraded to level 3.
- Winter: Winter assets have been revamped. Winter looks even better now.
- Journal: Added a new Best Daily Earning record (Multiplayer only).
The new update also adds new multiplayer features. Check out the patch notes here.
