God Eater 3 Has A Major Update On The Horizon

Bandai Namco has a series of updates in store for God Eater 3, and the first among them is confirmed to arrive on March 15.

Dubbed version 1.20, this update provides a mix of customization and balancing for various character maneuvers/actions and Aragami. Most notable among them is Havakiri, a mechanized Aragami with rocket boosters for legs and blades for arms, who has become something of a menace for many players.

As for new content, the update will introduce something called “Certification Missions,” which unlocks new rewards when beaten at higher difficulties, as well as Amen-Ra, a second variant of Ra, who “threatens to plunge everything into the abyss with its blazing orbs.”

Here is everything God Eaters out there have to look forward to:

A new Aragami Approaches – Amen-Ra: An Ash Aragami that threatens to plunge everything into the abyss with its blazing orbs . A crimson horn made of highly concentrated crystal positioned atop its head is a symbol of the exceptional energy Amen-Ra possesses.

Certification Mission – Get “certified” by completing the mission at higher difficulties and unlock new rewards.

New Skin Tones for your Character – Change the complexion of your created God Eater.

Password Protection for your Assault Missions – Add a password for your created Assault Missions.

New NPC costumes – Some of your favorite NPCs can now sport new looks.

New hairstyles and accessories – Even more customization options are available for your God Eater.

  • Adjust Nemain’s section HP.
  • Adjust Ash Aragami’s frequency of devour attack
