NEXON has released a new trailer for The First Descendant, which reveals the first look at Season 4 Episode 1. The second half of the year’s roadmap was also unveiled.
The July 15 Update is the next addition to The First Descendant. It improves the existing Intercept Battle and introduces the “Void Intercept Battle: Extreme” update. The existing Hard Difficulty Intercept Battle and Void Abyss Intercept Battle will be merged into one, divided into difficulty tiers within the mode. Afterwards, on August 20, Season 4 Episode 1 will release with a Mega Dungeon that’s larger than existing dungeons. It includes more diverse level elements, interactive environments, and the decisive battle against Karel.
Following this update, a time-limited event difficulty mode, “Conquest,” will also be available two weeks later, alongside a ranking run event offering players rewards. A “Trials” mission in which enemy difficulty escalates infinitely will be included in the August Update as well. The September 17 Update will bring Descendant “Ultimate Hailey” to the roster, along with the addition of two new Ultimate Skill Modules. The November Update will introduce new content, including the ‘Henosis Sanctuary’ dungeon and the addition of a new Descendant, “Monet.”
Lastly, the December Update will add a new game mode, “Colosseum-A.” It also adds the game’s first-ever asymmetric PvEvP content, which will split players into two competing factions, battling against Vulgus while targeting and interfering with each other’s missions, with the ability to transform into a Colossus.
