The First Descendant April Dev Livestream Highlights

Key updates on character balancing, new content, and future plans revealed.

Today’s developer livestream packed a punch, shedding light on several important topics. The focus was primarily on character balancing adjustments, fresh content updates, and our roadmap for the future. For a full recap of the livestream, check out the video below:

Character Balancing

  • Ines Balance Adjustments
    The impact of Ines has become so significant that it affects the game’s combat system design. As such, we’ve made some balance tweaks. Going forward, we promise to communicate more clearly about why these changes are necessary and what direction they’ll take.
  • Balancing Plans for Serena and Other Descendants
    A few Descendants are in dire need of skill set reworks rather than just numerical fixes. We’ve noticed that Serena’s performance is surpassing our original goals—although she’s brand new in this universe. We’ll keep an eye on her before making any decisions.
  • Balancing of Future New Descendants
    We recognize that recently released Descendants with overly strong skills have led to balance issues. Moving ahead, we’re committed to delivering better-balanced content for upcoming updates so everyone can enjoy a stable gameplay experience.

Content Improvements and System Additions

  • Improvements to Void Erosion Purge & Introduction of Challenge Difficulty
    Check out the gameplay video here!
    We’ve implemented improvements in Stage 30 of Void Erosion Purge based on community feedback to create a more engaging experience. For additional details visit [Dev Note vol.15 – Upcoming Improvements]. Plus, we’re rolling out “Challenge Difficulty,” which allows competitive play among Descendants through dedicated leaderboards. The top 100 players will earn exclusive Honor Rewards!
  • New System: Medal System

    We’re introducing a Medal System that highlights your accomplishments in-game! You can collect medals by achieving specific tasks; repeat achievements will upgrade their grade and visuals.
  • External Component Update Postponed
    Due to minimal necessity within current content structures, this update has been postponed as we shift our focus towards boosting Season 3’s overall quality.

Ultimate Blair Joins the Fray!


Meet our newest Ultimate Descendant: Ultimate Blair! Along with his arrival comes an interesting story episode illustrating how he unlocked his ‘Ultimate’ power—complete with Blair’s signature comedic flair.

New External Components & Modules

  • A total of five new External Component sets and two Modules are joining us soon for greater build diversity and tailored role configurations.
  • The Reactor and External Component Enhancement System will allow players to gradually boost option stats using specific materials—perfect for those who want to fine-tune their setup through dedication!

User-Friendly Features & Support for New Players

  • Reward Enhancements
    The Void Shard cost will be waived when opening Amorphous Materials at the Void Fusion Reactor! We’re also adding Unique Arche Factor EXP rewards in Hard difficulty Special Operations alongside improved general rewards in Sigma Sector.
  • Weapon Research Improvements
    If you craft duplicate weapons now, you’ll see their unique effects automatically set at max tier! Also, unlocking cores from duplicates is only needed once now; if you’ve done it multiple times already, expect Core Binders back soon!
  • Beginner’s Guide
    A beginner-friendly guide is coming your way! This aims at helping all players smoothly progress through storylines while learning gameplay mechanics naturally. We’re also simplifying main questline structures so missions can be prioritized according to player preferences.
  • Mission Structure Revisions
    Missions focused around Kingston and Sterile Land are getting redesigned for more combat-centric experiences—like fewer repetitions or quicker completions for field missions such as Occupations or Destroy Kuiper tasks! By playing on Normal difficulty you can even get Ultimate Bunny through these missions now.

The Latest Skins Coming Soon!



On April 17th look out for “Dandy Corn,” a fresh universal skin being added! Then mark April 30th down because we’re updating the “Albion Academy Cadet” series designed specifically for female Descendants.

An Upcoming In-Game Event Announcement!


From April 17 onwards there’ll be a special five-week event featuring daily and weekly quests.
Also log in between April 17-24 to receive a surprise “Surprise Egg” social motion gift!

Sneak Peek: May Update Preview

Expect features like Dynamic Motion adjustments, Arche Tuning: Socket System changes, Void Abyss Intercept Battle: Ice Maiden addition along with Special Operations – Hard difficulty (Echo Swamp/Sterile Land), Party Finding System implementation alongside viewing other Descendants’ Stats plus Core Convert Feature!
