Functionally, the standalone launcher will be identical to the Steam version of the game and as such will not have any significant differences in performance.
However, the standalone client does provide the benefit of being able to play the game on PC without linking a Steam account. This will enable PC players to easily reroll accounts and get a head start on the game if they wish to do so.
To celebrate the launch of our PC launcher, logging into the game from 16 April 2024 to 2 May 2024 before maintenance begins on either PC or mobile devices will reward players with 1600 Starstones, enough for 10 pulls on any banner.
