The first expansion, The Chapter of Marisa, arrives on February 27, introducing players to a compelling tale centered on Marisa’s life as a Guardian. Her path intertwines with a mysterious young girl captivated by ancient ruins, forming an unexpected yet cherished bond. However, their journey is soon shadowed by dark forces, leading them to uncover the secrets of the enigmatic “Child of the Rune.”
Next, on March 13, The Chapter of Seign shifts the focus to the noble strategist, providing a fresh viewpoint on the unfolding events within the Galdean Empire. This expansion sheds light on what transpired while Seign and his allies operated from the shadows, playing crucial roles in the empire’s fate. As the story unravels, players will witness the hidden struggles and covert missions that shaped the course of the main narrative.
Closing out the trilogy of expansions is The Chapter of Markus, launching on April 3. Markus, accompanied by Carrie and Nowa, stumbles upon a mysterious anomaly known as “Menhir’s Distortion,” which grants them access to an unknown realm through a teleportation gateway. Their exploration into this uncharted dimension could hold the key to long-buried truths, including revelations about Markus’s cryptic past.
