Prestige Skin (June 19th)
The Prestige Skin was born from the idea of, "What if we emphasized or expanded this part of the swimsuit concept a bit more?"
Rather than creating something entirely new, we focused on enriching a single concept.
Because of that, we felt it was more appropriate for it to be a visual-only customization item rather than a new costume with combat capabilities.
And so, we decided to add a "Prestige Skin," based on an existing costume.
A Prestige Skin is an item that changes the appearance of a specific costume when equipped.
It features a new illustration, a unique skill cutscene, new interactions, and a different dash effect in the field.
It can only be equipped if you already own the corresponding base costume.
Battle performance is not affected in any way.
In other words, to equip the Midsummer Dream Justia Prestige Skin, you must already own the Pool Party Justia costume.
* The Pool Party Justia costume can be obtained not only through draws but also by clearing the Normal difficulty of the Summer Knight Event Pack for the first time.
However, even if you only have the skin and not the base costume, you can still enjoy the Prestige Skin's special cutscenes, illustrations, and interactions on the home screen.
Prestige Skin Lucky Draw
The Midsummer Dream Justia Prestige Skin can be obtained through the Prestige Skin Lucky Draw.
The Prestige Skin Lucky Draw can be played using exclusive tickets, which are sold in a dedicated package.
When you draw, you'll receive one probability-based reward from among the 1st to 5th-tier prizes.
However, the 1st-tier prize (the Prestige Skin) will not appear until a certain number of draws have been made.
After that point, the 1st-tier prize becomes available.
# Price of package containing 2 Prestige Lucky Draw Tickets: $7.99
# 2 Prestige Lucky Draw Tickets will also be given out for free if you log in during the period
# For reference, the maximum total cost (Pity) required to obtain 1 skin from the entire prize pool is approximately 69,000 KRW (About $50).
Illustration
You'll be able to see Justia wearing an even more glamorous outfit compared to her original Pool Party Justia skin.
Field Character
The field character's standby motion has also been changed to a cute pose instead of the usual stand-at-attention, and an ice cream drop effect is applied when dashing.
Skill Cutscene
Interaction
This scene is both a skill cutscene and an interactive scene.
With Prestige Skins, one scene from the skill cutscene is designed as an interactive scene, allowing players not only to watch the animation, but also to experience interactions within it.
Prestige Skin Selection Criteria
In the past, we mentioned that it was difficult to feature certain characters as Fated Guests if they had even slight romantic elements related to them in the main story.
However, unlike Fated Guests, Prestige Skins are focused on "interaction" rather than background story concepts.
This gives greater freedom in interpreting with whom the character is interacting.
Going forward, we aim to take advantage of this flexibility to gradually expand the range of costumes that can include interactions, even those that previously had such limitations.
But first and foremost, we hope you enjoy your time interacting with Justia.
New Costumes Introduction
Water Park Queen Wilhelmina
The star of this story is none other than Water Park Queen Wilhelmina.
As the young principal of Beirun Elementary, she struggles to find her students in the chaos of the Water Bomb venue.
She maintains her existing multi-hit playstyle, while gaining a new buff that allows her to build even higher Chain stacks—similar to Masquerade Bunny Celia.
This gives her a concept centered around building high Chain stacks.
Poolside Fairy Refithea
The second costume in "Splash Queen" is Poolside Fairy Refithea.
Poolside Fairy Refithea is a mischievous character with a natural talent for water games.
She grants a Property DMG buff and reduces the SP cost for allies when they queue up their skills.
Her battle concept focuses on supporting allies.
Poolside Guardian Zenith
The final costume of "Splash Queen" is Poolside Guardian Zenith.
Poolside Guardian Zenith works as a lifeguard at the water park alongside Nebris.
Her battle concept centers around applying Concentrated Fire on a single enemy and increasing additional Chain DMG.
In addition, Zenith uses "Search" as her ability skill—which likely means we'll be seeing less of Lathel and Jayden in the field from now on.
Dream Bride Eclipse
The winner of the 1.5th Anniversary popularity poll and the costume concept poll!
Eclipse returns as a radiant bride in white.
The costume is called "Dream Bride Eclipse," and players can earn all 6 copies—enough to upgrade it fully—through event missions.
Its skill features a simple concept: dealing damage to enemies across a wide area.
However, the skill has a unique attack range that differs from her existing skill.
Skill Cutscenes
Here are preview images of the skill cutscenes for the costumes above.
Pickup Information
Notice on Schedule for Limited Costume Reruns
First, Justia's and Teresse's swimsuits will be featured in June, while Schera's and Teresse's swimsuits will have their pickup banners in August.
The highly requested "Beachside Angel Teresse" is planned to be featured twice—once in June and once in August.
New Fated Guest (June 19th)
Water Park Queen Wilhelmina will be added as a new Fated Guest.
Wilhelmina was feeling quite nervous as she prepared for a parent-teacher conference with a student’s parent.
To ensure a smooth conversation, the usually stern-faced Wilhelmina begins practicing to smile naturally.
The story starts here with the Master coaching Wilhelmina on how to smile.
Always serious, and at times seemingly cold—but what is Wilhelmina like when she's in love?
I hope that players are able to uncover Wilhelmina's hidden charm in her Fated Guest story.
