Smilegate's premier RPG has just rolled out an exciting update that includes a new prequel story titled "A Resolve Inherited," along with a suite of quality-of-life enhancements that went live today.
Set in an alternate timeline known as the 6th World, "A Resolve Inherited" explores a universe on the brink of total destruction due to the cyclical nature of ruin and rebirth. In this narrative, you'll follow the journey of Krau and Victorika, the central protagonists, both of whom are fully voiced. You'll witness Krau's dedication to safeguarding Victorika through the main episode and various side-story content.
Adding to the excitement, Guard Captain Krau steps into the game as a new playable five-star character. Krau's unique ability to deal damage based on his Defense stat offers a potent offensive strategy. His skills enable him to circumvent enemy defenses, apply debuffs, and boost his Combat Readiness, making him a formidable addition to any team.
Even if you're not deeply engaged with Epic Seven's ongoing saga, Krau's impressive abilities are sure to pique your interest. And if you decide to jump in, you'll benefit from a range of new quality-of-life improvements.
The update revamps growth support systems for the new episode, including the Heart of Orbis, and enhances guides to help new players navigate the early stages of the game more smoothly. A new feature, the Ogre's Armory, has been introduced to help you acquire essential equipment earlier in your journey. Additionally, the cost of Catalysts needed for hero development has been significantly reduced, and various UI and gameplay enhancements are now scattered throughout the game.
