Blue Archive, the JRPG sensation from Nexon, is celebrating its second anniversary in style! The game’s Kimono-Clad Duo will light up screens and captivate players worldwide in a dazzling New Year rerun event. Get ready for a gaming spectacle as we dive into the heart of this exciting celebration!
As the Halloween season approaches globally, Nexon’s popular Japanese role-playing game (JRPG) sensation, Blue Archive, is marching to the beat of its drum, dusting off the kimono and welcoming a rerun of the New Year’s Rhapsody No. 68 event that initially took place in August 2022.
The revival isn’t just a blast from the past, though – it’s a fireworks display of fresh content and characters that will light up the screens!
Leading the charge into the digital fray is Kayoko, a mystic-type striker hailing from Gehana Academy. Don’t be fooled by her adorable kimono; she’s packing a punch. Her EX skill is a game-changer, granting an amulet to a teammate other than herself for a whopping 40 seconds. In other words, she’s the ultimate wingwoman for your in-game battles.
But wait, there’s more! Joining Kayoko is the equally kimono-clad Haruka, an explosive-type striker who also calls Gehana Academy home. Haruka might have a touch of low self-esteem, but that doesn’t stop her from obliterating enemies with her trusty shotgun. Her strong determination and an EX skill that deals immense damage in a fan-shaped zone make her a formidable force.
The Highlights:
- New Gehenna Academy students Kayoko (New Year) and Haruka (New Year) make their debut
- The epic conclusion to Chapter Four of Blue Archive’s main story, “Phrenapates Showdown,” will be released on Oct. 3
- Players can gear up for a celebratory livestream for Blue Archive’s Two Year Anniversary, which expands the world of the RPG game
- New Update Content in the 22nd chapter introduces exciting new missions and six unique T8 gear types for a smoother gameplay experience
- Quality of Life Improvements by Nexon include a feature to save inventory space and automatic creation of high-quality items by combining eligible items when near max capacity
- Bounty and Scrimmage Tickets have been unified into a single Ticket type, streamlining in-game currency management.
Unlimited Cherry Blossoms and Beyond
The new year rerun event isn’t the only treat for Blue Archive enthusiasts. The Cherry Blossom Festival Commotion is back; this time, there’s no deadline looming over your head. Blossom at your own pace!
Meanwhile, Nexon has teased a lineup of exciting events and questlines, including an eagerly anticipated epilogue for the “Phrenapates Showdown,” the fourth chapter of the game’s main story final episode, scheduled for release on October 3.
