Blue Archive releases the Serenade Promenade update with new idol-themed students

Author : Gabriel May 07,2025

Following the excitement of The Senses Descend update, Nexon has once again delivered a thrilling update for Blue Archive that's sure to captivate fans. The Serenade Promenade event is now in full swing, introducing two dazzling new idol-themed students, a compelling new story, and exciting news for PC gamers eagerly awaiting the game's arrival on Steam.

Stepping into the spotlight are Mari (Pop Idol) and Sakurako (Pop Idol), the stars of the latest recruitment event in Blue Archive. Mari brings a unique flair to the battlefield with her healing support capabilities, cleverly converting excess healing into bonus HP through her Fan Service stacks. On the other hand, Sakurako is geared towards enhancing Crit and Crit Dmg for herself and Special Students, making her an invaluable asset for teams that thrive on swift, high-impact damage. Both idols will be available for recruitment only until April 28th, so don't miss your chance to add them to your roster before their limited-time availability ends.

The Serenade Promenade story event kicked off on April 15th, inviting players to dive into a narrative that beautifully intertwines the dreams of idols with the drama of school life, a hallmark of the Blue Archive experience. To participate, players need to complete Mission 2-3 (Normal) and can enjoy the event until the same April 28th deadline.
