Unlocking Characters in The First Descendant
Characters in The First Descendant can be unlocked by either completing quests or earning them through research.
During the Open Beta, players were given the option to start with Ajax, Lepic, or Viessa at no cost. As they advance through the main quest, they will also unlock Bunny as a playable character.
To access the remaining characters, you must visit Anais, the Magister in Albion, and conduct research. Each Descendant requires specific materials that must be located before they can be unlocked.
This approach to unlocking characters may be subject to change upon the full release of The First Descendant, but we will continue to update you on any modifications in the future.
