The First Descendant gets massive seasonal content update next week

NEXON and the development team behind The First Descendant unveiled major details for the upcoming Season 3 Episode 2 update during a livestream on Wednesday night. Launching next week, the update introduces a new Descendant named Harris, a new Dungeon, Ultimate Weapons, Trigger and Ancestors Modules, and a long-awaited Trading System.

The main story continues as Alpha, captured by Karel in the previous chapter, is now under interrogation. Players will head into the Axion Plains to mount a rescue mission. To mark the update, a seasonal event will run from November 6th to December 4th, offering rewards such as Ecive, chest attachments, and materials for Ancestors Modules. A separate login event from November 6th to December 18th will grant items including Serena’s Cleaning Service Set.

The Supermassive Receptor Dungeon, accessible through the Albion Terminal, World Map, or Axion beacons, debuts in Hard difficulty. It serves as the farming ground for Harris and the new ultimate weapon Hive Master. Cosmetic additions include a Bayonetta collaboration, featuring a full-body skin, themed weapon skins, makeup, and special effects.

Harris, the new Descendant, wields twin mechanical arms and a toxin-based passive skill that alters her abilities. Her active skills include dashing charges, aerial slams, damage zones, and ranged beams.

This update also brings a highly-requested feature to The First Descendant – player trading. Soon, players will be able to exchange Trigger Modules and Ancestors Modules, although the amount you can trade scales with your Master Rank, so those at the end of the grind will be capable of trading more frequently.
