The limited time, titular Ancient Forge event will begin 29 July 2020, 10:00 to 12 August 2020, 03:59 UTC -7. Quantum Firecrackers can be obtained during the duration of the event to redeem items, including the 5-star Pull Specialist Operator, Snowsant. Players will need to have cleared stage 1-10 before the event is available.

The free 10-roll Headhunting Permit will be available from 29 July 2020, 04:00 to 12 August 2020, 04:00 UTC -7.

From 29 July 2020, 04:00 to 12 August 2020, 03:59 UTC -7, a log in event for 10 days will provide:
