Blue Archive 5th Anniversary Pre-Registration Opens

Blue Archive's 5th Anniversary celebrations are ramping up. Nexon has opened a Pre-Registration & Update Roadmap Special Page that goes live on 2025-11-03 at 5:00 AM UTC, giving Senseis an early look at upcoming recruits, events, and rewards. For more ongoing coverage, check our blue-archive news hub.

What the Special Page Includes

The page is structured as a voyage with several sections. The Voyage Prep section hosts the pre-registration button. Student Introductions lists the Pick-Up schedule for November and December, along with detailed introductions for each student. Story & Events previews upcoming content, including the event story "Set Sail! Pandemonium Ship: Chair Makoto's Lux Summer Getaway!" and Main Story Act 2 "Vol. 1 Flame and Shadow." A Digital Goods section showcases various Blue Archive digital items.

Several sections are marked "to be revealed later." These include Special Gifts, the 5th Anniversary Growth Support event (details coming during the 5th Anniversary Special Livestream on 2025-11-08), Messages from Senseis, and additional Special Content such as the event PV.

Pre-Registration Rewards

Players who pre-register can expect a set of starter materials. The confirmed gift list includes:

• 10-Recruitment Ticket x1
• Beginner Tactical Training Blu-ray Choice Box x20
• Normal Tactical Training Blu-ray Choice Box x15
• Advanced Tactical Training Blu-ray Choice Box x10
• Beginner Tech Notes Choice Box x25
• Normal Tech Notes Choice Box x20
• Advanced Tech Notes Choice Box x15

Distribution details for these rewards are not yet available. Nexon states that specifics will be announced in a future notice.

Dates to Watch

All times are UTC. The roadmap covers Pick-Up banners for November and December, though specific banner phases and rates are not stated in official materials.

F2P and Low-Spend Planning

The 10-Recruitment Ticket is a straightforward one-time boost toward any upcoming banner. Combined with the material boxes, it helps newer players close resource gaps before the anniversary content drops. Since the November–December Pick-Up schedule is only teased, holding Pyroxenes until the full banner list is revealed on the special page is the safer play. For daily currency, the separate Blue Archive 5th Anniversary Countdown Guide covers login rewards running through 2025-11-08.

What Remains Unconfirmed

The exact distribution window for pre-registration gifts, the full Pick-Up banner lineup with rates, and the contents of the 5th Anniversary Growth Support event are all listed as "to be revealed later." Treat any community speculation about specific characters or reward quantities as unconfirmed — subject to change until Nexon publishes the corresponding notice or livestream.
