Blue Archive Unveils Serenade Promenade Update: New Idol-Themed Students Added

Following the excitement of The Senses Descend update, Nexon is back with another thrilling update for Blue Archive that's sure to strike a chord with fans. The Serenade Promenade event is now live, introducing two new idol-themed students, a captivating new story arc, and exciting news for those eager to play on PC.

Mari (Pop Idol) and Sakurako (Pop Idol) are the stars of the latest recruitment event in Blue Archive. Mari brings a unique healing support to the battlefield, stylishly converting excess healing into bonus HP while stacking up Fan Service. On the other hand, Sakurako focuses on enhancing Crit and Crit Dmg for herself and Special Students, making her an ideal choice for teams that thrive on quick, high-damage bursts. Both idols are available for recruitment only until April 28th, so make sure to seize the opportunity before it's too late.

The Serenade Promenade story event, which launched on April 15th, invites players to step into the limelight after completing Mission 2-3 (Normal). This event beautifully intertwines idol aspirations with school-life drama, staying true to the classic Blue Archive narrative style. It will run until the same April 28th deadline, so don't miss out on the story.

In addition to the in-game updates, the developers have confirmed during their recent livestream that Blue Archive will soon be available on Steam. This is fantastic news for PC players who will be able to sync their progress and enjoy cross-platform play. Furthermore, improvements to English localization have been promised, enhancing the overall gaming experience.
