NEXON and the The First Descendant development team hosted an in-depth livestream unveiling everything coming in the highly anticipated Season 3 Episode 2 update, launching November 5, 2025. The update introduces a brand-new Descendant named Harris, the Supermassive Receptor Dungeon, Ultimate Weapons, Trigger and Ancestors Modules, an all-new Trading System, and much more.
Main Story & Special Events
Picking up after Alpha’s capture by Karel, Episode 2 continues the tense storyline as the Descendants venture into Axion Plains on a rescue mission. A limited-time seasonal event runs from November 6 – December 4, 2025, letting players take part in new missions for exclusive rewards like Ecive, chest attachments, and Ancestors Module materials. A special login event follows from November 6 – December 18, granting items such as Serena’s Cleaning Service Set simply for logging in.
Supermassive Receptor Dungeon
The new Supermassive Receptor Dungeon arrives in Hard difficulty and ties directly to Axion Plains. Accessible through the Albion Terminal, world map, or Axion beacons, this dungeon serves as the key farming area for both the new Descendant Harris and the Ultimate Weapon – Hive Master. Expect intense battles against Pattern Flores, a ferocious boss that uses devastating laser attacks, demanding precise timing and awareness. Victorious players earn valuable modules and new External Components.
Bayonetta Collaboration Cosmetics
Style meets power with upcoming Bayonetta-themed cosmetics arriving this November. The crossover features a full-body skin modeled after the iconic witch, weapon skins based on her signature handguns, exclusive makeup, and new social motions. A special in-game event from November 6 – December 4 lets players complete daily missions to earn rewards including an Ultimate Descendant Selection Box—allowing you to choose between Ultimate Lepic, Ajax, or Viessa.
New Descendant – Harris
Passive – Internal Toxin Control: Harris generates or consumes Toxin with each skill used, unlocking diverse effects depending on Toxin levels. Mastering this mechanic is key to unleashing her full power.
- Crushing Charge: Dash forward to smash enemies using twin mechanical arms.
- Site Intrusion: Leap high and slam down mid-air for massive AoE impact.
- Designate Danger Zone: Create an area that continuously damages enemies.
- Waste Disposal: Fire a long-range energy beam from her mechanical arms.
Ultimate Weapons
- Hypernova: Available through the Battle Pass, this sword can be thrown to generate a black hole pulling in enemies, then recalled for a massive explosion.
- Hive Master: Dropping from the Supermassive Receptor Dungeon, this weapon applies an Incubation effect on hit, spawning Shock Bugs that track and attack enemies—stacking hits cause devastating Discharge effects.
New Trigger Modules
- Steel Vanguard: Clash-type skills create periodic AoE damage around the Descendant.
- Relative Speed: Building stacks via Slow-type skills triggers explosive weak-point shots at 50 stacks.
- Domino Drive: Chain-type skills convert stacks into buffs that expand skill area and increase Fire-type power.
Ancestors Module System
This brand-new module type can be equipped in Descendant module slots and comes with randomised attributes such as socket type, required Descendant, and option values. While core stats like socket type or mastery rank can’t be altered, players can fine-tune option counts and values. Unwanted modules can be dismantled, and all collected items are easily managed in a dedicated interface. Trading for Ancestors Modules arrives in December.
Balance Update – Hailey
Hailey is receiving a major overhaul to enhance build diversity and skill flow. Base damage is increased, her third skill allows smoother movement, and two new Transcendent Modules join the roster – Camouflaged Sniping for precision boosts and Cold Heart to improve close-range combat and farming. Her Cryogenic Cluster Shot module also sees improved performance with up to 18 projectiles fired from her first skill.
New In-Game Trading System
Players can now trade Trigger Modules and Ancestors Modules with others. Higher Master Rank levels increase your trade limits, and tradable items are clearly marked within the UI for easy identification. This system adds a fresh layer of community-driven progression and resource sharing.
