Meet the New Agents: Chinatsu and Aria
The burgeoning idol unit “Wanso Angel” introduces two dynamic new agents capable of unleashing cooperative attacks: Chinatsu and Aria.
Chinatsu is an S-rank Physical support agent, offering unique assistance to “Aggressive” and “Anomaly” attribute members. Her companion, “Bubble-chan,” marks enemies with its “Cat Glare” skill, detonating them for damage and providing a powerful attack buff to the entire team. During her ultimate skill, Chinatsu swings her hammer, dealing damage and triggering a quick assist, calling allies to the field.
Joining Chinatsu is Aria, the main vocalist of “Wanso Angel.” As an Aether anomaly agent, she commands two forms: a “Structure” mechanical form and an “Idol Hologram.” Aria excels in direct combat, unleashing explosive damage on abnormal enemies with her charged attacks.
Supporting them from behind the scenes is Bompu “Kosan,” the dedicated fan club president. Kosan continuously restores agents’ HP and can boost the entire team’s attack power if two or more “Wanso Angel” members are present.
Accompanying Chinatsu and Aria’s debut are charming new costumes, including Aria’s unique two-form design. Additionally, S-rank agents Giyuu (Genboku, Meihaku) and Yuzuha (Physical, Support) are scheduled for reruns in this version.
Exciting New Events and System Enhancements
Version 2.6 introduces a variety of engaging events and significant system improvements.
In the “Resonating Fantasies” event, Proxies are welcomed as honorary managers for “Wanso Angel.” This role involves managing their training schedules, operating their social media, and guiding their growth through rhythm games and a new map and elements in “Marcel’s Grand Adventure.”
The “Hollow Zero” also receives an upgrade with the new “Code Square” mode. This mode features weekly stages with diverse and unique gimmicks, challenging players with a new team composition of three main agents, one Bompu, and one support agent. New Resonator emblems and exclusive agent armaments further expand strategic possibilities. Furthermore, a “Sweep” function has been implemented in Hollow Zero, promising a more convenient and fulfilling gaming experience.
Performance enhancements for agents Lycaon and Yuma are also part of this update. Players can also obtain a new costume for Panjikou for free by completing limited-time events.
Generous Rewards and a Global Celebration
To commemorate “Golden Day,” a surprise “Internaut Membership” event begins today, allowing players to earn Polychromes through daily play, with a total of 3300 Polychromes available through membership and login bonuses. From February 14th to February 23rd, the “Golden Day Grand Giveaway!” holiday event offers a chance to participate in a daily lottery and share a massive prize pool of 4 billion Polychromes among all participants.
Celebrating the debut of “Wanso Angel,” the “Wanso Angel Global Support Project: Sweet Crush” will be progressively rolled out across various regions. This global event will feature brand collaborations, offline events, and special projects, offering limited-edition merchandise such as virtual idol-themed towels, penlights, and T-shirts.
