On January 30th, 'Seven Knights Re:BIRTH' (hereinafter Seven Knights Re:BIRTH) held its inaugural international live broadcast. Hosted in Thailand, the stream featured General Producer Kim Jung-ki and Planning Team Leader Son Gun-hee, with a local Thai influencer taking the lead. Despite the language barrier, the team bridged the gap with real-time interpretation, dropping updates that caught the attention of adventurers from both Thailand and South Korea.

The broadcast kicked off with a bit of ice-breaking, reflecting on the 2025 Seven Knights Festival that set both domestic and international communities ablaze. Notably, the cosplay of Teo by Netmarble NEXUS CEO Kim Jung-min went global, sparking a wave of memes and creative tributes that resonated even with the Thai player base. When Producer Kim Jung-ki hinted that they might consider releasing the Teo cosplay as an in-game outfit, the studio erupted in cheers.

Managing your inventory just got easier with 'Gear Sale Presets'!

The spotlight first fell on the February 5th update. The team opened with an apology for the delay of the Gear Sale Preset system. After further refinement, they’ve polished the feature to allow for granular customization of stat options.

This system is designed to let you mass-sell items by filtering out unwanted stats with ease. For those finding the setup a bit daunting, the developers have introduced a sharing feature. They’re even planning a community event at launch where players can share their configurations, with hefty rewards awaiting the best presets.

The Four Lords' 'Lu Bu' arrives February 5th, alongside the new Legendary 'Rockstar Trude' costume.

Next up, the long-awaited arrival of the Four Lord, Lu Bu. A minute-long cinematic trailer showcased his debut, confirming he’ll join the roster alongside the Gear Sale Preset update.

The team also pulled the curtain back on Hanbok costumes for Evan, Karin, and Yui—with Yui’s version being obtainable for free via an event. They also teased silhouettes of outfits celebrating Thailand’s Songkran festival, which appear to be for Colt and Ruri.

Furthermore, the next Legendary grade costume was revealed to be for Trude. It’s a direct nod to the fan-favourite 'Rockstar Trude' from the original series, also slated for a February 5th release.

Targeting competitive play, the 'Real-time Arena' pre-season opens in late February.

The Real-time Arena enters its pre-season in late February. As previously discussed, players bring three decks to the match; each player bans one of their opponent's decks, and then both choose one of the two remaining decks to battle. While the rules for turn priority based on speed remain the same as the regular arena, the flow is entirely different. You’ll need to make real-time decisions on skill usage under a time limit, meaning your tactical intuition is more important than ever.

Looking ahead, the team hopes to use the Real-time Arena as a foundation for global tournaments. They plan to expand this into a global matchmaking system based on the feedback gathered during the pre-season.

Adventurers unite in the 'Sudden Raid'.

The previously teased Sudden Raid is coming soon. While clearing standard raids, there’s a chance a Sudden Raid will trigger. All players can join in for a limited time, and successful cooperative clears will yield better loot than standard raids.

A new gear crafting system tied to these raids was also announced. Using materials earned from Sudden Raids, players can access an advanced crafting system—the example shown suggests players can select four main options for their gear.

Lowering burnout, boosting rewards.

During the Q&A, the team addressed concerns about content fatigue, specifically regarding Guild Wars. They acknowledged the issue and are looking into ways to streamline the experience, similar to the sweep functions in Castle Siege.

Regarding rewards for the Upper Arena, they noted that the experience varies by region due to differences in player population. In Thailand, where the high-rank pool is deeper than in Korea, climbing tiers has been tougher. They plan to adjust this by using percentage-based thresholds to ensure fairer rewards.

On the topic of future PvE content, the developers emphasized that they need to reduce the current gear-farming burden before introducing new challenges. Once that pressure is eased, they plan to roll out new PvE content like World Raids, alongside upcoming buffs to Castle Siege rewards.

To wrap things up, the developers thanked the Thai, Korean, and global adventurers for tuning in late. They signed off by teasing a future offline event in Thailand.
