New Characters, Story, and Game Mode Join Blue Archive

Nexon's Blue Archive receives a major update: "Rowdy and Cheery," brimming with new content for action-strategy RPG fans.

Who are the "Rowdy and Cheery"?

This update introduces a new story arc centered around a chaotic field trip between Gehenna Academy and Allied Hyakkiyako Academy. Follow Gehenna students as they journey to Hyakkiyako, while the Festival Operations Department struggles to maintain order. Expect exciting interactions as these groups collide in a 10-episode story, rewarding players with Pyroxenes and Credit Points upon completion.

Two new characters debut: Tsubaki (Guide) from Hyakkiyako Academy, serving as a tour guide, and Umika from the Festival Operations Department, a Mystic-type Striker wielding a powerful Fireworks Launcher. See them in action:

A New Game Mode Arrives!

"Final Restriction Release" challenges players to defeat formidable bosses. Deploy up to 6 Strikers and 4 Special students per unit. This limited-time mode (available until October 21st) offers valuable rewards: Credit Points, Enhancement Stones, and Workbooks crucial for the new Talent Unlock system.
