Nexon has released a new update for Blue Archive with an all-new event, as they have decided to do a Special Summer Mission in the middle of Winter. Chalk this up there with the random anniversary celebrations we see mobile games do because it takes real brass to claim you're doing a Summer event in late December. In any case, RABBIT Squad & The Mystery of the Missing Shrimp is the latest event to come to the game, as you'll have a few weeks to play this new side adventure. You can read the finer details here about both the event and the new minigame.

Blue Archive – RABBIT Squad & The Mystery of the Missing Shrimp

RABBIT Squad member Miyu (Swimsuit) is a deadly force on the battlefield and can be recruited to players' teams by playing the event story. An Explosive-type Special Student, her distinctive feature lies in her personalized, powerful move, or EX-skill, which inflicts a fixed amount of Crit DMG proportional to her ATK to enemies in a straight line. In Blue Archive, Crit DMG represents the amount of extra damage characters deal when landing a critical hit. The more ATK a student has, the more damage they will deal.  Continuing the summery swimsuit trend, fellow RABBIT Squad members Miyako (Swimsuit) and Saki (Swuimsuit) are the perfect companions to Miyu (Swimsuit).

A Piercing-type Striker, Miyako wields a submachine gun and a strong sense of initiative as the leader of the RABBIT Squad. Her EX Skill reduces the Crit DMG RES, or critical damage, of one enemy for 50 seconds and deals damage proportional to her ATK. By her side is Saki (Swimsuit), an Explosive Type Striker and student at SRT Special Academy. She deals damage proportional to her ATK to 1 enemy and has an EX Skill that decreases the enemy's DEF, ATK, and Crit RES, their critical hit rate, for 50 seconds. The three powerful new students also bring a wealth of rewards and celebratory events, including:

  • "Summer Secret Mission! Capture a RABBIT!" Event – During this event, one story about the RABBIT Squad will be released every day through Sunday, Dec. 30. Available until Tuesday, Jan. 9 at 1:59 a.m. (UTC), players can tap the Snap button on the event page to earn rewards such as Frozen Shrimp and a 10-Recruitment Ticket that can be used in the Dice Race.
  • "Climbing High! SRT-Style Bouldering" Minigame – Users can earn various items by climbing to the high ground with RABBIT Squad students in this precarious minigame until Monday, Feb 19 at 4:59 a.m. (UTC).
