Blue Archive July 21 Maintenance: Banners Ending, Events & Rewards

Blue Archive is set for a scheduled maintenance on July 21, 2025, from 2:00 AM to 7:00 AM (UTC). The update will bring routine improvements, adjust in-app purchase prices for some regions, and mark the end of several key banners and events. Players should log in before the downtime to claim any pending rewards and wrap up ongoing content.

This maintenance also signals the final stretch for a handful of limited-time activities and shop packs. Whether you are chasing the pajama-themed recruits or trying to finish the Valentine’s event, now is the time to act. For the latest Blue Archive news and guides, check out Blue Archive news.

Banners Ending

The July 21 maintenance will close the following pick-up recruitment banners:

• Koyuki (Pajamas)
• Yuuka (Pajamas)
• Noa (Pajamas)
• Haruna (New Year)
• Fuuka (New Year)

All Recruitment Points earned in these banners will be reset, so spend any remaining points before the maintenance begins. These characters are not expected to return immediately, making this the last chance for a while to pull them at a boosted rate.

Events & Rewards

Several event periods expire at maintenance time on July 21 (2:00 AM UTC):

• Secret Midnight Party: The Chimes of Tag – event story period ends; reward claim and exchange remain open until July 28, 2:00 AM UTC.
• Game Development Department's Cleanup Operation! – reward claim and exchange period ends.
• Valentine's Day Promise – reward claim and exchange period ends.

Make sure to clear any outstanding currency or event-specific items before the July 21 maintenance, as the exchange shops for Game Development Department's Cleanup Operation! and Valentine's Day Promise will close completely.

For Total Assault: Binah (Field Warfare), ranking and total points reward claims are available until July 28, 2:00 AM (UTC). Don’t miss the deadline for those rewards.

Shop Pack Changes

The Decagrammaton series of packs will be removed from the Pyroxene Shop during the July 21 maintenance:

• Exclusive Weapon Growth Pack
• Millennium Skill Growth Pack
• Equipment Blueprint Pack
• Activity Report Pack
• Eleph Choice Pack (3★ Regular Recruitment)

The Eleph Choice Pack includes a 10-Recruitment Ticket that remains valid until July 28, 1:59 AM (UTC) – even after the pack is removed, the ticket can be used until that date.

Pre-Maintenance To-Do List

• Claim all event rewards from Secret Midnight Party, Game Development Department, and Valentine's Day Promise.
• Use any remaining Recruitment Points from the pajama and New Year banners.
• Spend Decagrammaton pack items (tickets, materials) before they expire.
• Complete Total Assault: Binah runs and claim ranking rewards (due July 28).
• Log out at least 5 minutes before 7/21 1:55 AM UTC to avoid session issues.

What to Expect After Maintenance

Once the servers come back online, all players will receive 600 Pyroxene as compensation for the downtime. No new content is scheduled to begin immediately after this update, but the July 28 deadline for the Secret Midnight Party exchange and Binah rewards means you have a week to wrap up those final tasks.

Keep an eye on official channels for the next update preview, expected to arrive after the July 28 reset.
