The tour, which began with a Shanghai show in July, will visit Taipei in September and continue to Los Angeles, Seoul, and Singapore. Despite heavy rain that brought over 100 millimeters per hour in parts of the Kanto region, attendees lined up for merchandise and entry. The concert opened with \"Saving Light,\" the version 1.0 login screen theme, and progressed through songs tied to story moments, including \"Daydream Grand Feast,\" \"Against the Tide,\" and \"Chasing Daylight.\" Performers included Amanda Achen, Casey Lee Williams, Crywolf, NANO, and Will Stetson. The encore featured \"RUNNING FOR YOUR LIFE\" and \"Turning Around,\" the latter commemorating the game's second anniversary.
