Yostar announced on the 14th that Arknights is receiving a new update, 'The Snowy Advent 1101'. This update introduces new operators and a narrative-driven event stage.

The core of this update, the event stage, is split into three distinct chapters—'Pilgrimage Journey', 'Path of Reform', and 'Heart of the Holy Mountain'—which will open in sequence. Complete limited-time missions to earn the 6-star operator 'Astgenne the Lightchaser', pieces of the 'Karlan Trade Reception Room' furniture set, and a 'Snowfield Multi-purpose Detector'. You can trade the detector for various items, including tokens for 'Astgenne the Lightchaser', furniture, Headhunting Permits, collections, high-end materials, and LMD.

Six new operators are joining the roster, all tied to the new story. The headliners are 6-star operators 'SilverAsh the Rainfrost', 'Pramanix the Prairie-ta', and 'Astgenne the Lightchaser'. They are joined by 5-star operators 'Snowhunter' and 'Hadiya', plus 4-star 'Accort'. 'SilverAsh the Rainfrost' re-imagines the iconic Guard-class SilverAsh as a Vanguard, allowing for more strategic deployment.

The limited-time Headhunting event 'Oath of the Blizzard' runs until the 28th. This banner features 'SilverAsh the Rainfrost', 'Pramanix the Prairie-ta', and 'Snowhunter'. It is also an opportunity to obtain previously released limited operators such as 'Lapland the Decadence', 'W', and 'Virtuosa'.

Yostar is providing rewards for users who log in during the event period, including one 'Melted Snow Trace' Headhunting Permit and two daily Orundum pulls. Cumulative login for ten days will unlock an Estelle collection, the 'Blizzard Statue' interactive furniture, emergency sanity recovery potions, and more. From the 28th to May 8th, an additional attendance event will offer Kernel Headhunting Permits and festival supply kits.
