Nexon (co-CEOs Kang Dae-hyun and Kim Jung-wook) announced on the 28th that it has updated its subculture game 'Blue Archive' with the new event story 'The Path of the Ninja' and added two new characters.

First, a new event story, 'The Path of Ninjutsu: Fashion Show Security Mission! Prologue,' has been added. This story features students from the 'Hyakkiyako Alliance Academy,' including Michiru, Izuna, and Tsukuyo, as they take on a security mission for a fashion show. Players can follow the 'Ninjutsu Research Club' as they resolve various disturbances and rediscover the true meaning of being a ninja.

By completing stories and missions, players can earn event-exclusive currency such as 'Ninja Ear Ornaments' and 'Fashionable Folding Fans,' which can be exchanged at the event shop for various items, including 'Tactical Training BDs (Hyakkiyako),' 'Technical Notes (Hyakkiyako),' and 'Ramen Tables.' Additionally, the high-difficulty Challenge stages offer 30 Pyroxenes for each stage cleared, while the final 'Challenge EX' stage rewards players with 'Secret Tech Sheet Fragments.

Along with this, two new characters from the 'Hyakkiyako Alliance Academy' have been introduced in dress-themed versions. Michiru (Dress), the head of the 'Ninjutsu Research Club,' is an Explosive-type healer whose 'EX Skill' provides a burst of health recovery to a single ally, making her a reliable support in battle. Tsukuyo (Dress) is a Piercing-type tanker who, upon using her 'EX Skill,' creates cover and increases her attack speed for 30 seconds, allowing for more strategic gameplay.

To celebrate the update, Nexon is running a double-reward campaign. Until May 5, the 'Wanted' campaign will provide double rewards, including 'Tactical Training BDs,' 'Technical Notes,' and 'Artifacts' from various academies. Furthermore, from May 5 to May 12, completing 'Schedule' and 'Mission' tasks will grant double the usual items, such as 'Technical Note Boxes' and 'Technical Notes.'
