New Character Aruka Joins Monster Strike's Extreme Beast God Festival Gacha Starting July 4

A new character named Aruka is making her debut in the "Extreme Beast God Festival" gacha of Monster Strike, the smartphone pull-and-hunt RPG from MIXI, Inc.

Aruka is a rookie witch tasked with investigating and restoring "Ark," a miniature garden world contained within a trunk. Free of any preconceptions about the world, she believes it is "a wonderful place full of beauty" and sets off on a long journey — her first time ever venturing outside. Popular voice actress Azumi Waki brings Aruka's charm to life. To celebrate Aruka's debut, a campaign is also running where participants can win "えらべるPay®" gift points by lottery.

The "Extreme Beast God Festival" gacha also features limited-time Japan national soccer team versions of Sandalphon and Metatron, while a Japan national soccer team version of Oragon appears in a limited-time quest. Clearing the limited-time missions rewards Good Job stamps for Sandalphon and Metatron, the "Japan National Soccer Team" medal, and the "SAMURAI BLUE" title. Login bonuses include a Good Job stamp for JFA official mascot Karappe and four types of Strike Seals. For more details on the "Extreme Beast God Festival" gacha, check the announcement on the official Monster Strike website.
