New Content in "Treasure Hunters"
The "Treasure Hunters" mini season embraces a pirate theme, introducing various pirate crews to the island. This season marks the debut of characters from the popular anime and manga series One Piece, with some characters accessible via the battle pass and others available through the in-game shop. Additionally, the beloved Vocaloid character Kasane Teto will make her appearance, alongside a new pirate-themed version of Hatsune Miku.
The season will feature new Points of Interest inspired by One Piece, including locations like Loguetown and Arlong Park. A Mythic item, the Gum Gum Fruit, will also be introduced, granting players unique stretching and combat abilities. Throughout the mini season, players can anticipate weekly events such as Mastery Mondays, Treasure Hours Sundays, and "Captain's Days," which will bring new weapons and in-game items. As a mini season, its duration will be shorter than a full chapter season, encouraging players to engage with the new content promptly.
