Maintenance Start

Maintenance End

1. New Nikkes

1.1 SSR Sora

SSR Sora, a stewardess from the Over the Horizon squad, joins the battlefield.

Sora is a Supporter who specializes in healing her allies.

When she activates her Burst Ability, she swiftly regenerates a substantial portion of her Health Points (HP) and eliminates any debilitating effects.

– Class: Supporter

– Weapon: Turbulence (RL)

– Code: Wind

– Manufacturer: Elysion

As an enthusiastic participant, I’m eagerly anticipating the Special Recruit event that runs from July 3, 2025 (UTC+9), ending at exactly 4:59:59 on July 17, 2025. Can’t wait to be a part of it!

* How to obtain: Lobby → Recruit → Special Recruit

* Recruit Rules:

① In Special Recruit, you have the option to utilize Gems or Advanced Recruit Tokens; Regular Recruit Tokens are not applicable here.

As a dedicated fan, I’m always hopeful when I roll in Special Recruit, knowing there’s approximately a 4% chance I might score an SSR Nikke. And if luck truly smiles upon me, there’s about a 2% chance I could even land an SSR Sora!

③ You can get Gold Mileage Tickets when recruiting in Special Recruit.

④ You can exchange 200 Gold Mileage Tickets for Sora in the Mileage Shop.

⑤ When Special Recruit ends, unused Gold Mileage Tickets will not disappear.

After the update following the conclusion of Special Recruit, Sora can be obtained in Regular Recruit, Special Point Recruit, and through Mold items. However, he will not be available in the New Commander Special Recruit, the Tutorial version of Regular Recruit, or the Mileage Shop.

1.2 SSR EVE Limited Recruitment Extension

The prolongation of the enlistment for SSR EVE, the brave and persistent angel from the 7th Airborne Squad, has been made official.

– Class: Defender

– Weapon: Virtuous Rifle (AR)

– Code: Fire

– Manufacturer: Abnormal

2.3 SR Pascal
