Pinocchio finally arrives in his Breaker form in SINoALICE, while the promise of a new collaboration from Pokelabo lingers on the horizon!
Pinocchio/Breaker appears in the Cheating Puppet which goes live later today at 7.00 am UTC+0 after the maintenance. Thankfully, Cheating Puppet is a STEP Grimoire, so players will be able to get a guaranteed SR weapon (hopefully Pinocchio’s). Players can unlock the blade-focused Pinocchio by obtaining the featured SR blade, Sword of Dependence.
Other featured SR weapons appearing in the banner include Bow of Friendship (projectile), Violin of Friendship (instrument) and Staff of Friendship (staff). These 3 weapons, together with Sword of Dependence, have a guaranteed chance of dropping after five pulls with on the STEP Grimoire.
Pinocchio/Breaker is making a timely appearance, because the character will get a bonus in the next Conquest Event coming to SINoALICE.
The next Conquest Event is Hatred’s Curse which also goes live together with the Cheating Puppet banner. Hatred’s Curse introduces players to Belial, a new Nightmare. In this banner, Pinocchio will get increased effectiveness when using weapon skills.
Besides that, the game will offer a promotion for Twilight Crystals. The new deal will grant players an additional 295 crystals in the standard 316 Twilight Crystal package.
Lastly, Pokelabo teased the coming of another collaboration in the dev notes for the content mentioned above. It likely might be past collabs that already took place in the Japanese version such as Re:Zero or Code Geass. Note that this is speculation, and is by no means a confirmation.
