The First Descendant

Season 1 brings new content and legendary sniper

The First Descendant

08/19/2024 - With the new update "Season 1: Invasion" for The First Descendant, the game experience will be further expanded with new Descendants, dungeons and stories. NEXON is releasing exciting new features and challenges that will be available from August 29.

With the release of "Season 1: Invasion" on August 29, 2024, NEXON presents a wealth of new content and expansions for the free-to-play looter shooter The First Descendant. This update promises not only new playable characters, but also expanded game mechanics and challenging dungeons that present players with new tactical tasks.

One of the key points of the update is the introduction of Hailey, a legendary sniper who has risen from a guerrilla unit to a formidable fighter. Equipped with an anti-material sniper rifle and unique abilities, Hailey can take out enemies with one precise shot and use temperature control to gain an ice-cold advantage in combat. Her introduction brings a breath of fresh air to the game and offers new tactical possibilities for players looking to take on the role of a Long-Range Descendant.

Another highlight of Season 1 are the "Invasion Dungeon" challenges, which have been specially developed for speedrunning enthusiasts. These dungeons offer an increased difficulty level and randomly generated operations that reward players' speed and efficiency. The faster an invasion is completed, the more valuable the rewards, providing a high incentive for experienced players to test and improve their skills.

The introduction of the "Reverse Boost" adds a new layer of progression to the game. This system allows Descendants to unlock new powers in the areas of Hunting, Attributes, Recovery, Survival and Seasons through the Ark Resonance Phenomenon. These new abilities scale as players progress, providing additional depth and customization options.

In addition to Hailey, a new Ultimate Descendant will also be introduced: Freyna. This powerful fighter harnesses the power of Ark Toxicity and takes on the challenges of Albion. Freyna's story, which will be explored in more depth this season, gives players the opportunity to learn more about her Space Zero Trauma ability and her inner conflicts.

Another exciting aspect of the update is the Void Intercept boss fight against the Death Stalker, a dangerous creature that lurks in the darkness of the Void. This boss fight poses a significant threat to players who must protect Albion from this new danger.

The update is rounded off by the introduction of new weapons such as Excava and Frostguard, which can be unlocked through the Battle Pass and by playing the Season 1 content. These weapons offer new possibilities in battle and are ideally suited to the new Descendants and their abilities.

What does the new update "Season 1: Invasion" offer in The First Descendant?
The update brings new Descendants, expanded dungeons, additional abilities and exciting boss battles to the game.

Who is Hailey in the new season?
Hailey is a legendary sniper equipped with an anti-material sniper rifle and unique abilities to take out enemies with precision.

What are the Invasion Dungeon challenges?
"Invasion Dungeons" are new, randomly generated dungeons with increased difficulty designed specifically for speedrunning enthusiasts.

What new weapons have been introduced?
New weapons include Excava, a versatile assault rifle, and Frostguard, a scout rifle perfectly suited to the new Descendants.

Season 1: Invasion will be available to all players from August 29, 2024.
