AUT A Universal Time Update 5.5 Guide – New Beowulf Ability, DMC Shop, and More
Update 5.5 Part 1 for A Universal Time (AUT) brings one of the biggest crossovers the game has seen so far. This update officially starts the Devil May Cry content, adding new abilities, a new NPC, a brand-new shop system, and several balance and quality-of-life changes. If you are actively grinding or planning to jump back into AUT, this update changes how progression works, especially with the new currency system. Below is a complete breakdown of everything included in AUT Update 5.5.
New Ability: Beowulf (Epic)
Beowulf is the first Devil May Cry spec added to AUT and focuses on raw physical combat. This ability relies on fast punches and powerful kicks, designed for players who enjoy close-range pressure and aggressive playstyles. Beowulf is inspired by Devil May Cry combat and is labeled as an Epic ability.

For one week only, Beowulf can also be purchased directly for 100k UShards and 100k UCoins, making it much easier for newer players to obtain early.
