Blue Archive Unveils Exciting Update: New Story, Units, and Game Mode Added!

Nexon has just released a major update for Blue Archive titled "Rowdy and Cheery," which introduces a wealth of new content for fans of RPGs with action and strategy elements. This update promises to keep players engaged for hours on end.

Who Is The Rowdy And Cheery In Blue Archive?

The "Rowdy and Cheery" update introduces an exciting new story arc centered around a chaotic field trip between two academies—Gehenna Academy and the Allied Hyakkiyako Academy. Players will follow the adventures of Gehenna students as they visit Hyakkiyako, leading to a series of wild and memorable moments across a 10-episode story. Completing these chapters rewards players with valuable in-game items like Pyroxenes and Credit Points.

This update also brings two new characters into the fray: Tsubaki (Guide) and Umika. Tsubaki hails from the Allied Hyakkiyako Academy and serves as a tour guide during the field trip. On the other hand, Umika, from the Festival Operations Department, is a Mystic-type Striker equipped with a Fireworks Launcher capable of delivering heavy damage to a single enemy. To see these characters in action, check out the trailer below!

There’s Also A New Game Mode!

The "Final Restriction Release" is a new game mode where players can challenge themselves by taking down tough bosses. You're allowed to deploy up to 6 Strikers and 4 Special students per unit to aid in these battles. This mode is available until October 21st, and successful players can earn essential items such as Credit Points, Enhancement Stones, and Workbooks, which are crucial for the new Talent Unlock growth system.

It's time to dive back into the world of Kivotos and explore the adventures that await in the "Rowdy and Cheery" update. You can download Blue Archive from the Google Play Store and experience all the new features firsthand.
