Patch 0.43 adds a dedicated Splash Island Rift containing both new boss targets. Cyclone9's recorded patch-day experience describes a longer spawn interval than older island rifts, so players should expect availability to feel different and treat exact timing as something the live game may still adjust.
Sylvaris is the headline utility pet because Mutation Catalyst increases the chance that captured pets have mutations by 20%. Its active kit also includes a straight-line root attack and Urgent Aid, which heals the ally with the lowest health.
Volturion's Ghost Impact applies Vulnerability, Inferno Blast delivers an area stun, and Rift Guard reduces damage taken in rifts. That combination makes it a control and survival option rather than another pure damage pet.
The Trader Event returns with tokens from normal play and online-time progress. Cyclone9's practical warning is to keep enough tokens to clear a strong board before paying for more refreshes, because finding a valuable reward is not useful if the account can no longer afford the path to it.
Daily and weekly quests can now be rerolled with gold, S- and SS-rank pets sell for more gold, exclusive-trait pets gain visible auras, and additional pets enter the Memory Chest pool. These changes matter most when cleaning inventory and choosing which recurring tasks are worth completing.

Patch 0.43 adds the Splash Island Rift, Sylvaris, Volturion, the returning Trader Event, rerollable daily and weekly quests, rank-scaled pet sell prices, exclusive-trait auras, Memory Chest additions, and time-sensitive gift codes.
Cyclone9's video shows Mutation Catalyst increasing the chance that captured pets have mutations by 20%, making Sylvaris especially useful for capture-focused farming.
Volturion applies Vulnerability with Ghost Impact, uses Inferno Blast as an area stun, and takes less damage in rifts through Rift Guard.
Keep enough tokens to clear a valuable board before paying for repeated refreshes. Cyclone9 warns that finding a strong reward does not help if refreshing leaves too few tokens to reach it.
They may not be. The video shows three patch-day codes, but current status can change quickly, so check the live Catch A Monster codes page before redeeming recorded codes.
