SINoALICE's first seasonal event, An End to Summer Dreams, gets underway today and will run until September 3rd

Following the conclusion of SINoAlice's recent NieR Replicant and Automata crossover events, they've introduced their first seasonal celebration. It's called 'An End to Summer Dreams' and it will run from today until September 3rd at 5:59 am UTC. There's also a new gacha grimoire available that features two new classes for existing characters alongside some weapons.

This will be a co-op guild event that will see players battling against various nightmarish creatures that appear in the different stages. Defeating them will net players clam medals that can then be traded in the Medal Exchange for numerous rewards.

Alongside simply exchanging the medals, there will also be several milestones to hit for gathering them in the first place. Hitting these targets will earn players a variety of completion rewards. Alongside getting more items for collecting clams the event features a new story that will feature the characters Sleeping Beauty and Little Mermaid.

Those two characters will also receive new summer-themed classes too. These will be obtained through a new gacha called 'Poacher's Feast'. From here you'll have a chance to pull Little Mermaid/Poacher and Sleeping Beauty/Poacher.

Beyond that, there will also be new SR weapons that can be obtained through this gacha too. The featured weapons in this gacha set will have an event exclusive effect that will apparently make clam collecting even easier. Players will also find 150 twilight crystals in their present box if they log into the game following a recent social media campaign. 

SINoALICE is available now over on the App Store and Google Play. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.
