In a special anniversary livestream for Reverse: 1999, Bluepoch Games unveiled the upcoming Version 2.8 content, showcasing detailed Live2D chibi models for the new characters. Titled Paradise Regained, this major update celebrates the game's second anniversary.
Events span from late September through October
Paradise Regained introduces four new 6-star characters to Reverse: 1999. Nautika features as the headline unit in the anniversary limited banner, The Myth at Her Fingertips, available in two distinct forms, each with unique skills.
Additionally, all players who log in during the anniversary period will receive Urich for free. First appearing in Version 1.9, he leads the Laplace cryptography team and exists as awakened ferrofluid contained within a glass tank.
Phase 2 brings Moldir, a lieutenant from the Former Zeno Sentinel Unit, a soldier conflicted between her duties and personal emotions as she watches enemy ships approach. Check out the preview video below.
