PokéSurvivor 2026-10-13: The Arceus Judgment
The 13 October entry introduced the Judgment of Arceus at 30 minutes. This is an endurance phase against an invincible Arceus, not a normal boss-clear objective.
Published patch date: 2026-10-13. Reviewed: 2026-10-21. Historical notes can contain rules superseded by later patches; this is not a live server-status report.
What Changed
- Reaching 30:00 moves the run into the Judgment. Additional legendary enemies arrive every five seconds, each with twice the prior arrival’s HP and damage.
- Three achievements were introduced for reaching the Judgment, surviving one minute there and defeating three of its legendary arrivals.
- The old 60-minute overtime was removed. New rifts stop opening from minute 28 so a run is not inside a rift when the Judgment begins.
- The all-time leaderboard was reset and server-side checks were strengthened; records over 35 minutes were removed in that patch.
Current Context
Do not use a pre-Judgment hour-long run as proof of present endgame balance. Later patches changed movement and co-op details; the current snapshot and dated update archive are the references for today’s recommendations.
