Everything about The First Descendant: news, patch notes, updates, events and gameplay changes.
Patch 1.3.33 arrives July 2 with 2nd Anniversary Events and content improvements. Prepare to log in and access new time-limited anniversary content and rewards when the patch goes live.
Two bugs fixed: a crash when using Valby's 'Laundry Bomb' skill with the 'Tidal Wave' module, and the 'Emergency Infiltration Team' Battle Pass weekly challenge not counting support clears. Reconnect after the patch for smoother gameplay.
Shape Stabilizers now speed up Amorphous Material shaping with concrete bonuses (+1 or +5 to count). A movement speed bug with holdable items is fixed. These changes affect your farming strategy and builds.
Ines's Dark Current damage formula changed in patch 1.3.28: the damage multiplier now scales from Max MP instead of Skill Critical Hit Rate. Your next games with Ines will hit differently — optimize your MP investment to match the new calculation. This shift affects how you build and play her.
Starting June 25, Blueprints marked 'No Longer Usable' will no longer be obtained from the ETA-0 Shop—they'll move to Anais's Info Grid Extract instead. You won't be able to trade them using ETA Vouchers after the patch, so plan your exchanges accordingly.
The 'Back to Albion' event grants exclusive rewards to returning players who haven't logged in for 30+ days. Log in before August 19 to claim rewards by completing specified Void Vessel operations.
A new Infiltration Operation 'Bastion of Immortality' is now available on Hard difficulty after completing the Exposed Underwater Base. Face varied area battles against the Commander monster 'The Administrator' with upgraded turret tower mechanics.
Five events launch June 18: Valby's Sea Day Gift (until June 26), The First Descendant x Evangelion collab (until July 29), Sea Day with Valby (until July 22), Ultimate Weapon Upgrade Mission II (until July 14), and Accelerate Research Week (until July 1). Log in to claim rewards before they expire.
