However, director Yoshi-P has brought an update on what to expect from the new Benchmark, and it sounds like good news all around.

Per an announcement released today on The Lodestone, Yoshi-P goes into full detail about all of the changes that have been made, as well as an update to the release date for the Benchmark itself. While initially planned for release today, due to a variety of unavoidable circumstances, the updated Benchmark will now be released on Monday, June 3.
