Okay, I'll admit it, I'd lost track of time and thought this was coming next week, so seeing the Twitter notification come through took me by surprise, ha.
-
Title screen update - This will be on the same version (3.1.700), so no store update required. The update will be available this time tomorrow.
-
The item required to upgrade Benedict to 5* will be available after completing Ensemble: Commander and Sheep.
-
Elseal will be available to summon immediately after updating, and her tomes will be available as drops from Miglance Castle Another Dungeon.
-
Astral Archive Challenge mode allows you to fight powered up versions of bosses for a set number of turns and aim for the highest possible damage scores, with rewards available for each score threshold reached.
-
Campaign: Clear any one Challenge difficulty boss (no minimum score threshold required) before 30 September to receive 500 Chronos Stones.
-
Start Ensemble: Commander and Sheep during the campaign period for an increased reward of 100 Chronos Stones.
-
Login reward increased to 50 Chronos Stones for up to 12 days (25th August - 5th September)
Next update date: 6th September UTC, bringing a new ES and a True Manifestation!
Even if it takes me ages to get around to this kind of thing, it's still more rewards sitting there to be plundered when I do get around to it.
And in my experience people do often enjoy score challenge modes for bragging right potential. Not my thing, but the target audience is definitely out there!
