Nexon has rolled out another exciting update for *Blue Archive* following The Senses Descend, and this one is hitting all the right notes. The new Serenade Promenade story event is now live, introducing two new idol-themed students and a captivating story arc. Plus, there's big news for PC gamers eagerly awaiting the game's release on Steam.

Mari (Pop Idol) and Sakurako (Pop Idol) are the stars of the latest recruitment event in *Blue Archive*. Mari brings her healing support to the game with a stylish flair, converting extra healing into bonus HP while stacking up Fan Service. Meanwhile, Sakurako boosts Crit and Crit Dmg for herself and Special Students, making her an ideal addition for teams that thrive on quick, high-damage bursts. Remember, both idols are only available until April 28th, so make sure to recruit them before the curtain falls.

The Serenade Promenade story event also kicked off on April 15th, inviting players to step into the spotlight after completing Mission 2-3 (Normal). This event blends idol dreams with school-life drama in the classic *Blue Archive* style and will run until the same April 28th deadline.
