PSO2 JP: ARKS Unity Festival [Panel Rewards]

ARKS United

ARKS Unity Festival takes place between January 22nd, 2014 until maintenance on March 5th, 2014! During the festivities, everyone will be given a Bingo Card. Each time a line is cleared horizontally, vertically, and diagonally, you'll achieve a BINGO Point that is tallied up with the scores of all players. This score is used to unlock rewards after the event is over. 

The reward and target values are displayed underneath each panel. Once a score for a particular panel is achieved, we all work together to unlock the next panel.

  • Client: ver. 2.0311.2
  • Patch Size: PC 22MBs / Vita 28MBs

Maintenance Contents

  • Corrected a bug wherein under certain conditions, Xie's client orders wouldn't appear. Due to this bug, Client Order Campaign #40 has been extended to February 19th, 2014. The items will be distributed February 26th at the visiphone.

  • You can play AC Scratch and PSO2es exclusive Rare Chip and Fun Chip scratch.

  • Emergency Quest announcements are also available. (Dev team wants to make Premium users receive announcements an hour in advance.)
  • You won't be able to log into PSO2 and PSO2es at the same time.

The background image used in the Scratch menu looks eerily similar to Casino Voloyal. Hmm..
