Hello, Heirs! This is GM Dominiel!

Let's take a look at what we have in store for you in this week's update.

Players will be able to view these updates after the maintenance on 3/13 (Thu).

1. Brawl Update

First introduced in the Special Side Story, Night of the Last Succession, Brawl has returned with a fresh new look as regular content!

Brawl is a round-based automatic battle PVE content where players can deploy Heroes on a team to defeat enemies and win. You can summon and deploy Heroes using Brawl Coins, a type of currency you can acquire from the Brawl. Referring to each Hero's element and affiliations, you can create Synergies, which will allow you to form a stronger team.

Use Synergies wisely to lead your team to victory and earn various achievement rewards.
