Press release:
Amsterdam, The Netherlands — March 19, 2024.
“Guardian Tales” welcomes a whole new cast of characters as things take a turn for the slimy. Characters from popular Japanese anime: “That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime” will be plunged into a whole new world, as they fight to get back home!

After the Walpurgis Night, beloved characters Rimuru Tempest, Milim Nava, and Shuna find themselves trapped in an unknown world. Rimuru Tempest, Milim Nava and Shuna must venture into the new world, battling against nightmarish creatures as they try desperately to return to their own universe.

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime comes as a two-part update. First players will get to experience a short story, filled with an assortment of quests and adventures to dive into. Players will step into the shoes of Rimuru Tempest, a ★3 Pick-up Summon Hero, and can call upon Shuna as a ★3 Hero obtainable in an in-game event. Shuna can also be maxed out with the resources and currency that will be given to all players as part of the event! What’s more, for those looking to truly take on the role of Shuna, her exclusive weapon will also be available for free during the event.

Arriving on Tuesday, April 2, Part Two of this anime-crossover will welcome Milim Nava, a ★3 Pick-up Summon Hero. But it won’t just be Milim Nava who will be joining Guardian Tales, with plenty of other appearances from the cast as NPCs — that players can interact with in the Short Story stages — over the course of the event.

Alongside Milim Nava, the second update will also offer the Bingo event board. Players can cash in their event points to spin the wheel and win incredible prizes, including 5 times Shuna’s exclusive weapons, Shuna’s exclusive costume, and Millim Nava’s exclusive costume.

The all-new Guardian Tales collaboration is the perfect opportunity for players to jump into the charming, immersive action RPG. For more information, check out the website or download Guardian Tales on iOS or Android.
