The highly anticipated second phase of Neverness to Everness Version 1.1 is almost here, bringing the powerful S-Rank Lakshana DPS, Chaos, to the limited banner.
Unlike many gacha games where second-phase banners roll out based on regional server times, NTE implements a unified global maintenance for mid-patch updates. This means Chaos will release at the exact same moment for all players worldwide.
Here is the complete breakdown of the Chaos release date, maintenance schedule, and what to expect on his banner.
Chaos Banner Release Date
Chaos will officially debut on June 23, 2026 (PT) / June 24, 2026 (UTC+8), immediately following the Phase 2 maintenance.
His limited banner will run for exactly two weeks, ending on July 7, 2026, right before the massive Version 1.2 update.
What’s on the Banner?
- Featured S-Rank: Chaos (Lakshana / DPS)
- Signature Arc Banner: What’s Desired (Chaos’s Best-in-Slot Arc)
Global Maintenance Times
Because NTE uses a global maintenance schedule for this update, the servers will go down for 5 hours before the banner goes live. Players will receive Annulith compensation for the downtime.
Here is when maintenance ends and Chaos becomes playable in your local timezone:
| Timezone | Maintenance Ends / Chaos Release Time |

| PT (US West) | June 23, 2026 at 08:00 PM |
| ET (US East) | June 23, 2026 at 11:00 PM |
| GMT (UK) | June 24, 2026 at 03:00 AM |
| CET (Europe) | June 24, 2026 at 05:00 AM |
| SGT (Asia) | June 24, 2026 at 11:00 AM |
| JST (Japan) | June 24, 2026 at 12:00 PM |
| AEST (Australia) | June 24, 2026 at 01:00 PM |
Should You Pull for Chaos?
Chaos is currently dominating the tier lists as one of the premier on-field damage dealers in the game. His ability to deal raw Lakshana DMG and utilize the powerful Street Boxer cartridge set makes him a top-tier pick for challenging content like the Hunter’s Crucible.
However, keep in mind that Version 1.2 is just around the corner (expected July 2), featuring the highly anticipated characters Shinku and Iroi.
If your account already has a strong DPS like Lacrimosa, you might want to save your Annulith. But if you lack a dedicated hyper-carry, Chaos is absolutely worth the investment.
Be sure to pre-farm his Ascension Materials before the servers go down!
