The world of Temtem is using the winter season as an overall theme for its latest season-launching update as well as an overall focus on quality-of-life.
The Frozen Tales season promises to take players “back in time to a long lost era when primeval humans and Temtem roamed a bare Archipelago” through the use of the usual seasonal items like a new Tamer Pass and new free and paid-for cosmetics, along with the new competitive season. What the Frozen Tales season will not include is events, which Crema says was not liked by the playerbase.
As far as features go, the update is otherwise QoL-heavy, with a new emote wheel, updates to the Tem details screen that lists where critters can be found, and the ability to watch automatically stored replays of PvP matches. The patch additionally applies a variety of balance updates to the competitive scene, with stamina regeneration tweaks and specific monster attacks called out as highlights. All of those salient details can be read in the patch notes.
