The update introduces characters from the Age of Reconstruction period in the game, as well as providing information on an assortment of systems. The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales is set on the continent of Philabieldia. The continent is overrun by beast tribes, with the Kingdom of Huther, under its magic barrier, being humanity’s last bastion. The game stars adventurer Elliot and his fairy companion Faie, who seek to lift a curse placed on Princess Heuria of Huther. To do so, they travel to different ages using the Doorway of Time, recently rediscovered within ancient ruins. One of the time periods is the Age of Reconstruction, many years in the past from Elliot's home Age of Safekeeping, where humanity is on the edge of extinction. Its surviving populace reside in a village called Littlehope, trying to live on meagre resources. Heurich is an adventurer from Littlehope, who finds a kindred spirit in Elliot and offers information about ruins and treasures. He is searching for a cure for his childhood friend Diona's illness. Diona has a caring nature, but is forced to remain indoors most of the time due to her illness. She often worries about Heurich's adventuring, which causes arguments between them. Finally, Calotesia is Littlehope's historian. A friend of Heurich and Diona, she notices similarities between Elliot and Heurich and offers him advice while doing her research.     The Adventures of Elliot: The Millennium Tales features a variety of gameplay systems for players to utilise. In addition to weapons and magicite , Elliot can equip and change accessories at any time. These provide various effects, such as the discerning monocle, which doubles the timing window for a precise guard, and the defalling charm, which prevents damage when falling into pits and lava. The game features various quests for players to take on. Each age has numerous people with requests for assistance, indicated by an icon above their heads.

These offer trials that test players' skills and puzzle solving, offering special rewards for completing them, including increasing Elliot's max health. Other rewards provided by the game include bonus loot drops, where not taking any damage against successive foes will cause them to drop greater rewards.     Finally, the game also includes a special cat collection mini-game. If players hear a meow while adventuring, there is a cat nearby. After finding a cat, Elliot can bring it to a cat-fancying traveler, who provides rewards based on the number of cats collected.

The developer stated that a longer-form gameplay reveal is planned for early summer. Exodus is set in a universe where humanity has fled the dying Earth and is looking for a new home while fighting for survival.
