Epic Seven: New Prequel Story and QoL Updates Revealed

If you're a fan of Epic Seven and eagerly awaiting fresh content for the weekend, you're in luck! Smilegate's premier RPG has just rolled out an exciting new prequel story, "A Resolve Inherited," alongside a suite of quality-of-life improvements that launched today.

"A Resolve Inherited" transports players to the alternate timeline of the 6th World, teetering on the brink of total destruction within the universe's cycle of ruin and rebirth. You'll dive into the narrative following the fully voiced protagonists, Krau and Victorika. The storyline follows Krau's valiant efforts to safeguard Victorika through the main episode and additional side-story content.

In conjunction with the story, Guard Captain Krau steps into the game as a formidable new five-star playable character. Krau's unique ability to deal damage based on his Defense stat creates a powerful offensive strategy. His skills also enable him to bypass enemy defenses, apply debuffs, and boost his Combat Readiness, making him a versatile addition to any team.

Even if the ongoing narrative of Epic Seven isn't your primary interest, Krau's impressive abilities are sure to catch the attention of many players. And with the new update, everyone can benefit from the enhanced quality-of-life features.

The growth support systems, including the Heart of Orbis, have been revamped to enhance the new episode's experience. New player guides have also been improved to facilitate smoother progression through the early stages of the game. The introduction of the Ogre's Armory system offers an exciting opportunity to acquire essential equipment earlier in the game.

Additionally, the Catalyst costs required for hero improvement have been significantly reduced, making it easier to enhance your characters. Various UI and gameplay improvements have also been implemented, ensuring a more streamlined and enjoyable experience.
