Character Banner in Version 1.1
For now, there have been announced three characters that you can see below. Two new 5-star characters and one new 4-star character.
Silver Wolf character. The universe is just another game to this super hacker. No matter how thorny the defense system, Silver Wolf can crack it with ease. Her hacking battle with Screwllum of the Genius Society has become stuff of legends in the hacking world. How many more levels are there to beat in the universe? Silver Wolf looks forward to finding out. Silver Wolf is a Quantum-Type character following the Path of Nihility. She has a special ability to inflict Weakness on enemies. When Silver Wolf unleashes her Skill, there is a chance of inflicting a Weakness on an enemy target. The Weakness Type will be the same as at least one of the allies in combat. Her Ultimate can reduce the DEF of a single enemy target and deal DMG to them. Whenever she attacks, Silver Wolf has a chance of implanting a random Bug on an enemy target, which can reduce the target’s ATK, DEF, or SPD.
Luocha Character. A handsome blond young man who carries a giant coffin on his back. As an intergalactic merchant, he was unfortunately caught in the Xianzhou Luofu’s Stellaron crisis. And that is how he found his mastery of medicine to come in handy. Luocha is an Imaginary-Type character following the Path of Abundance. His Skill can restore a large amount of HP to a designated ally. When any ally’s HP falls to 50% or less, an effect equal to Luocha’s Skill will be immediately triggered. Unleashing his Skill or Ultimate attack will accumulate stacks of Abyss Flower. When the Abyss Flower reaches 2 stacks, Luocha can consume all the Abyss Flowers to deploy a field against the enemy. When any enemy in the Field is attacked by an ally, the attacking ally immediately restores a certain amount of HP.
Yukong Character. The Xianzhou Luofu’s Head of the Sky-Faring Commission is gentle, yet seasoned and authoritative. Having been a pilot since young, she had become the commission’s head with her outstanding combat achievements, yet she no longer flies due to a particularly brutal battle. Now, her shine had already dimmed as she shifted her focus to official duties, but she is always seen guiding the course of the Luofu. Yukong is an Imaginary-Type character following the Path of Harmony. Her Skill can increase the ATK of all allies. Her Ultimate can buff her Skill and increase the CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG of all allies, as well as dealing DMG to a single target enemy.

Since early childhood, I was fond of gaming. I played Doom 2, Red Alert 2 and, of course, The Sims. I grew up but my passion didn’t go away. So now I am writing about the stuff I love the most: video games!
