A Platinum Showcase and a Shadow Focus Summon Showcase are live now in Dragalia Lost. While shadow-attuned adventurers and dragons will appear in both of these showcases, the Platinum showcase can only be used to summon 2 times and these summons can only be redeemed with diamantium (which requires a separate purchase).
The big draw to the Platinum Showcase is that summoning this time will guarantee a five star shadow-attuned adventurer. The 2 adventurers possible to be summoned are five star versions of Summer Mym and Alberius. In the regular Shadow Focus Summon Showcase, these 2 adventurers can also be summoned but it’s also possible to get the five star version of High Chthonius.
Both of these summoning events last until September 26, 2021 at 10:59pm PT. And more specific details about the adventurers available are included below.

Melty Blood: Type Lumina has only a couple of weeks to go until launch, but Project Lumina and French-Bread just revealed Vlov Arkhangel as the game’s latest character. He’s the nineteenth of The Twenty-seven Dead Apostle Ancestors in Tsukihime.
According to the official website, Vlov is a Dead Apostle from the frozen lands of the far north who has arrived in the city of Souya. As a being starved of warmth, he feeds on blood for feed that he can then use to create flames. One of his abilities allows Vlov to switch from Flame Mode to Ice Mode when in danger. In doing so, his abilities are greatly expanded, “granting him nearly unrivaled strength.”
