Blue Archive receives a significant update from Nexon, featuring the continuation of the main storyline, new characters, and various in-game events.
The update centers around Vol. 1 Foreclosure Task Force Chapter 3, "Traces of a Dream, Part 2," which delves into the aftermath of the Kaiser Group's withdrawal. While the immediate threat has subsided, lingering issues continue to challenge the Foreclosure Task Force. Players will need to navigate these new obstacles to protect the school.
A notable addition is the release of Serika (Swimsuit), a 3-star Mystic-type Dealer character. Her circular area-of-effect attack, dealing percentage-based damage, will prove valuable in the new missions. She's joined by several other returning students, also sporting summer attire, including Chise, Izuna, Shiroko, Wakamo, Mimori, and Nonomi.
This update also introduces Area 26 missions in Normal and Hard modes, alongside the Foreclosure Task Force Midnight Meeting Guide Task (running through December), offering rewards such as Abydos Student IDs and Recruitment Tickets. New achievements are available for both main story and regular missions.
Finally, the "Balancing Schale's Books" mini-event with the General Student Council allows players to earn Financial Calculators by using AP on missions and commissions. These calculators can be exchanged for rewards until December 17th. Don't forget to redeem available Blue Archive codes for additional rewards!
