Tears of Themis Unveils Ballad of the Dunes With New MR Cards

HoYoverse's Tears of Themis unveils its latest update: "Ballad of the Dunes," a captivating collaboration with Gansu Province's Culture & Tourism. This crossover seamlessly blends the game's investigative elements with the rich cultural heritage of Dunhuang, a city nestled on the Gobi Desert's edge.

Ballad of the Dunes: A Journey Through Time

This event weaves a tapestry of history, romance, and mystery against the backdrop of the ancient Silk Road. Players will unravel intriguing puzzles steeped in the region's captivating atmosphere.

The highlight? Four brand-new MR cards featuring Luke, Artem, Vyn, and Marius, each inspired by unique aspects of Dunhuang's culture. Expect stunning visuals referencing flying apsaras, intricate murals, and the traditional pipa. The artistic style mirrors the ancient performers depicted in the Mogao Caves, reflecting the Silk Road's rich artistic fusion during the Western Han Dynasty (202 BC–8 AD). HoYoverse masterfully translates this historical richness into the Tears of Themis universe.

Each card boasts a unique narrative: Luke's "In the Footsteps of Silk," Artem's "Serenade of the Soul," Vyn's "Reverberation Through Time," and Marius's "Void of Creation," all complemented by Private Messages offering deeper insights into this thousand-year journey.
