by

In the second season of “The First Descendant,” a fresh character named Keelan was introduced, but unlike the first season, another new playable hero is coming soon. Fans fell in love with her at first sight, but Nexon has shared reasons why fans should be eagerly waiting for more than just her attractive appearance. The release of Ines Raya in “The First Descendant” is imminent, and here’s a rundown of her abilities, along with new skins, events, and rewards to accompany her debut.

For the initial part of 2025, Nexon has outlined a plan for their game TFD. Earlier, it was mentioned that photo mode would debut in Season 3, and now they’ve revealed when the “jiggle physics” feature will be introduced into the game.

Currently, we’re eagerly looking forward to the second half of Season 2, which is just about to begin. This part includes the unveiling of Ines Raya’s release date, as well as introducing fresh The First Descendant skins, all in celebration of the Lunar New Year and an accompanying event.

The First Descendant Ines Raya release date

The release date for the character, Ines Raya, in The First Descendant has been officially set as January 16th, according to information shared during Nexon’s Season 2 Second Update Dev Preview live stream.

Once she’s been set free, players can harvest her more frequently through the challenging Void Vessel hard option. Moreover, for those yet to acquire Keelan, they will have the opportunity to farm him using the Void Vessel on a moderate difficulty setting when he becomes available.

One standout feature of TFD lies in its captivating character depictions, and Ines Raya is definitely part of this allure. By default, she sports her hair pulled back into a chic bun, and her outfit is a sleek, full black leather number that accentuates her figure beautifully.
