-
Sunday: The former head of the Oak Family, aided by Wonweek, delivers a spectacular final act. This 5-star Imaginary character boasts an Ultimate ability focused on energy regeneration, bestowing "The Beatified" status on a teammate and their summon.
-
Fugue (Tingyun): Following the events of Version 1.2, Fugue, who players know as Tingyun, makes her return after a near-fatal encounter. She's now a 5-star Fire character whose Ultimate ability shreds enemy Toughness while dealing substantial Fire DMG.
