Blue Archive receives a major update featuring new story content, a swimsuit character, and various missions. Nexon has released Volume 1, Foreclosure Task Force Chapter 3, "Traces of a Dream, Part 2," continuing the main storyline. This chapter focuses on the Foreclosure Task Force facing new challenges following the Kaiser Group's withdrawal, leaving unresolved issues to tackle.
The update also introduces Serika (Swimsuit), a 3-star Mystic-type Dealer character, originally from the Abydos Resort Restoration Task Force event. Her circular area-of-effect attack, dealing percentage-based damage, should prove useful in the new quests. She's joined by other returning students in their swimsuit attire: Chise, Izuna, Shiroko, Wakamo, Mimori, and Nonomi.

Additional achievements are available for both main story and regular missions.
Finally, the mini-event, "Balancing Schale's Books with the General Student Council," allows players to earn Financial Calculators by using AP on missions and commissions, exchangeable for event rewards until December 17th.
