A new update for Arknights introduces a new side story titled “Lingering Echoes.” It focuses on the famous composer Czerny who is organizing his farewell concert and has attracted Ebenholz and Kreide to participate. This new update also brings three new operators, three new outfits, a new themed furniture set, and new rewards.
Lingering Echoes is set at Leithanien and has grabbed the attention of Rhodes Island mainly due to the recent phenomenon of infected people being able to heal themselves. The famous composer Czerny, who's been infected, is holding a farewell concert where Ebenholz and Kreide are set to experience a story of resistance and intrigue.
The Lingering Echoes event starts today, December 27, and runs until January 10. For the duration of the event, the five-star defender Czerny is available as the bonus operator. Doctors can also get the new furniture, Afterglow-Styled Music Room, and other items including Headhunting Permit, Elite Materials, LMD, Battle Records and Furniture Parts from Composer’s Mailbox by clearing the event stages.
