The event will run through July 31st and feature a number of different campaigns every week to earn some new gifts and to celebrate with bonuses and buffs like rate boosts.

The Twin-Horned Raven From Beyond is the new Limited-Time Quest. This quest involves finding and battling the boss Ruine Gryphon. Quest will take place at a different location every day with various characters joining the battle along the way. 

July 3rd also opens a campaign for new and returning players that will reward 100 million EXP once you reach level 20 with any class. That amount of EXP will get you up to the 87th level instantly. 

On July 10th, there is a new mode coming: Line Strike, a new card-based battler within PSO2.  play against NPCs  or  other players, ranked or unranked. and it shouldn't be surprising that one of the ways you get new cards is through scratch tickets. Line Strike also brings a new Build Part, the Line Strike Playing Board, from which you can jump into matches.

Duel: Phase 5 is coming, featuring a duel against Venogia, an enemy that Sega says will resemble one that you might have already encountered in the story quests.
