Game News: May 27 - June 2

Read on for the latest news and information

Summer's almost here, and you know what that means: our flood of Spring updates is about to get super-heated! Get the latest details on this week's news, Treasure Hunt, Boosts, and find out more about this weekend's interlude boss battle.

Tuesday, May 28: Bounty Cache Hunt

This week's treasure hunt is live! Talk to Valencia in the /Museum to begin your hunt to recover the shipment of Lost Bounty Hunter gear. (Items are Color Custom to accessory)

Rewards include:

GL-1ST Salvage Blade
GL-1ST Salvage Blades
Sheathed GL-1ST Salvage Blade cape

Another Treasure Hunt is here! (It sure feels like it's been awhile, with the recent run of midweek monster drops). This Treasure Hunt is, like the others that released this year, on the easier side to give as many players as possible a reason to try out some of the older hunts.

But never fear, our midweek update design team have been on a hunt of their own to find rewards that will hit that sweet spot for new and old heroes alike.

Rewards will be permanently available.
