Overview
Porsche has partnered with Hotta Studio to bring the Porsche 918 Spyder hypercar and an in-game Porsche headquarters to Neverness to Everness. The collaboration went live on June 3, 2026 as the Everdriving Mystery Box event, running through July 8, 2026 (05:59 UTC+8). It was announced ahead of the April 29, 2026 launch as a post-launch game update rather than at launch. It is the first real-world automotive brand partnership confirmed for the game.
Porsche's 918 Spyder is a flagship hybrid hypercar produced from 2013 to 2015, frequently cited as one of the defining performance cars of its era. Bringing it into Hethereau's urban environment fits the city's near-future aesthetic and connects with the existing vehicle customization system, where players already modify and personalize their cars.

Porsche 918 Spyder Background
The 918 Spyder is a limited-production hybrid hypercar that paired a 4.6 liter V8 engine with two electric motors for a combined 887 horsepower. Production was capped at 918 units, all of which sold out before deliveries completed. The car set lap records at the Nurburgring Nordschleife and remains one of the most influential hybrid performance vehicles ever made.
Bringing this car into Neverness to Everness lets players drive a faithfully recreated version through Hethereau's streets, complete with the recognizable interior, dashboard layout, and signature exhaust audio. As with other vehicles in the game, the 918 Spyder is fully drivable in both third-person and first-person modes.
In-Game Porsche Headquarters
The collaboration also adds an in-game Porsche headquarters to Hethereau. The headquarters serves as a destination point for the collaboration event, where players visit the building to interact with collaboration content (vehicle showroom, event missions, cosmetic acquisition). Specific layouts and gameplay details have not been published; the location functions as both a thematic setpiece and an event hub when the collab goes live.
Why a Post-Launch Drop
The collaboration was announced as part of the game's broader launch marketing push but was explicitly scheduled for a future update rather than launch day. This is consistent with how branded automotive partnerships in service games typically work: the collaboration runs as a limited-window event with bespoke missions, cosmetics, and time-gated acquisition windows, which require dedicated event infrastructure beyond what ships at version 1.0.
Releasing the Porsche content post-launch also gives Hotta Studio room to time the announcement around a content patch after launch, when fewer competing launch headlines diluted coverage. The collaboration arrived with the Version 1.1 update on June 3, 2026.
How the Collaboration Connects to Existing Systems
The 918 Spyder integrates with several existing systems already live at launch:
System | Integration |
|---|---|
Paint colors, decals, and tuning options apply to the 918 Spyder like other cars in the game. | |
The collaboration vehicle is added to the requisition garage once unlocked. | |
Photo mode supports the new vehicle for screenshots in vehicle showcases. | |
Driving first-person view works with the 918 Spyder, showing the recreated dashboard interior. | |
The in-car radio and Walkman both function in the 918 Spyder. |
Tips
Watch the official channels for the collaboration start date. Branded automotive collabs in service games typically have a two-to-four week event window with limited-time mission rewards.
Save Fons if the collaboration uses city currency for acquisition. Past Hotta Studio collaborations have offered both currency-based and event-completion paths to the headline reward.
Check the in-game vehicle requisition list once the event goes live. Collaboration vehicles are typically added to the requisition garage so players keep them after the event closes.
Set up photo mode presets for the 918 Spyder. The car's signature shape and Hethereau's neon-lit streets pair well; presets save composition options for repeated use.
Porsche 918 Spyder (Version 1.1)
The Version 1.1 Special Program on May 23, 2026 confirmed that the Porsche 918 Spyder is the headline vehicle of the collaboration. The 918 Spyder is obtainable as a drivable in-game car during the Version 1.1 event window starting June 3, 2026, alongside themed cosmetics and a dedicated residence.
Pegasus Residence
Alongside the 918 Spyder, the collaboration introduces a new player residence called Pegasus Residence. The residence ships with a built-in car elevator that lets players park the 918 Spyder (or other collected vehicles) directly inside the apartment, a unique furnishing feature not offered by any other residence at launch.
Cosmetic Acquisition
Porsche-themed cosmetics are acquirable through two parallel paths during the collaboration window: Annulith pulls (the standard premium currency) or Fons pulls (the soft currency earned from gameplay). Specific cosmetic items include vehicle liveries, character outfits, and residence decorations themed after the 918 Spyder. The collaboration event runs through the Version 1.1 patch window, ending alongside the Chaos banner close on July 8, 2026.
Everdriving Mystery Box Event
The Porsche content is delivered through the Everdriving Mystery Box event, live from June 3 to July 8, 2026 (05:59 UTC+8). The Porsche 918 Spyder is obtained through Mystery Box pulls, which can be made with either Annulith (premium currency) or Fons (the soft city currency). Alongside the car, the event awards the
Perfect Partners outfit, a themed costume for the protagonist Esper, Appraiser Zero. Players can also cross-link the Pegasus Residence, a new property whose built-in car elevator lets the 918 Spyder be parked inside the apartment.
Box pricing is confirmed in the official Version 1.1 update notes: the first Everdriving box costs 50,000 Fons or 50 Annulith, and the price climbs with each subsequent box. There are 15 boxes in total, and opening all of them unlocks every reward in the pool.
The full reward pool includes the Porsche 918 Spyder, Appraiser Zero's Perfect Partners outfit, Fabricated Dice x10, A Handwritten Letter x3, Fons x500,000, the Heartbeat Moment avatar frame, and the Trackside Shadow namecard. Vehicles obtained from the collab mystery boxes do not include a signature nameplate.
June 10 Handling Update
After the June 3 update, players reported that the 918 Spyder's driving feel had changed. The developer said a tire-model optimization had unintentionally affected the car's handling, and a June 10, 2026 client update added two free mod-shop parts (a suspension part and a tire part) that restore the original feel for owners who prefer it. An earlier emergency fix in the same collaboration window addressed a black-screen issue with the convertible top.
