Dragalia Lost dropped some new content today, starting with the revival of the facility event and summoning showcase of A Crescendo of Courage. This will bring higher summoning chances for five star variants of Summer Cleo, Summer Verica, and Pop-Star Siren. 

Also started now is the second part of the summer log-in bonus, featuring wyrmite, Light Tomes, and Shadow Tomes. Both of the aforementioned content drops will run until August 27 at 10:59pm PT. 

Finally, a new chapter has been added to the main story, titled “Light and Shadow.” This continuation of the main campaign will have the prince and his allies pursue Zethia’s captor to North Grastaea and face off against a familiar warrior once they arrive.
