First, the announcement meant more details about Herrscher of Rebirth. This is an S-Rank battlesuit people can pull. It’s a PSY-type that deals Physical DMG. However, the current form you set for her determines how you’ll use her in battle. When you want to use her as a DPS or damage dealer, you need to use the Life Binder form. However, the Soul Shaper form is designed to use her ultimate to debuff opponents for the other allies on her team.
As for activities, a few came up. The announcement trailer noted the Daughters of the Sea Chapter XXXIX update will appear. Completing it nets someone Crystals and an Event Stigma. Before the Endless Dream Ends is coming and bringing Crystals, the Darkbolt Jonin Shimmering Wavelets outfit, and a Your Miracle emblem. The Hot Summer Gift: Book of Memories event will begin and offer a Summer Reminiscence weapon option and The Moon’s Origin and Finality. A Butterflies of Rebirth: Break the Waves login event will appear with even more crystals and a Starfold Fortune outfit for Starlit Astrologos.
The official trailer for the event is now live. It teases that universes are about to collide, following other major events in the story. From there, Seele’s role in things is teased. That’s when we get to see the Herrscher of Rebirth battlesuit in action. Like other Seele battlesuits (and incarnations), the scythe is her primary weapon. It then teases the Daughters of the Sea Chapter XXXIX update and events like Before the Endless Dream Ends and Hot Summer Gift: Book of Memories.
