The First Descendant Season 1 release time, date countdown – when update starts and ends

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that The First Descendant has caught my attention like no other game in recent memory. The anticipation for Season 1 is palpable, and it’s not just because of the wicked characters or continuous support from Nexon, but also due to the fact that they are listening to the community and making necessary adjustments.


preparations are underway for the debut of The First Descendant’s inaugural episode. Many have been relishing playing it during its trial period, and TFD has proven to be an exhilarating experience thus far due to intriguing characters and unwavering backing from Nexon. The clock is ticking down towards the release date and time for when The First Descendant Season 1 update commences and concludes, and there’s a great deal of excitement building around the introduction of a new playable character and the eventual appearance of Ultimate Freyna.

As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that Nexon has unveiled the preliminary patch notes for Season 1, offering a glimpse into all the exciting new content we can expect: from fixes, adjustments, and a fresh difficulty level. Initially, the roadmap of updates left many fans feeling disheartened, but luckily, Nexon swiftly revised the S1 schedule, demonstrating their commitment to listening to their audience and being open to altering their plans based on feedback.

We’ve been thoroughly delighted by TFD ever since it launched, and things are only looking up as we approach the start of its first season. The clock is ticking down to the release date and time for The First Descendant Season 1, and Nexon has given us a heads-up about when maintenance will begin and end.

The First Descendant Season 1 release date

The first season of “The First Descendant” will officially debut on the 29th of August, as announced by Nexon on X.

From the get-go, you can expect Hailey to be one of the characters you’ll play. Nexon has provided information about her skills. She is a cool, sniper-focused character, and her design is striking, with many people drawing comparisons to the legendary Sniper Wolf from MGS1.

When does The First Descendant Season 1 start?

The starting date and times for “The First Descendant Season 1” are as follows: 4AM Pacific Time (PT), 7AM Eastern Time (ET), and 12PM British Summer Time (BST) on August 29th.

According to Nexon, maintenance for TFD Season 1 will begin at 10PM Pacific Time on August 28th and also at 1AM Eastern Time/6AM British Summer Time on August 29th. The maintenance is anticipated to conclude at each of the mentioned times on Thursday.

There’s a chance for potential delays according to Nexon, but they have provided an official timetable. Regrettably, the game will not be accessible during maintenance periods. We’ll keep you updated if any changes occur in this article.

Countdown

Below is a countdown to the launch of S1:

TFD S1 schedule

Starting on August 29th, Season 1 kicks off, but it’s divided into two parts. You can expect the second part to come out on October 10th.

This is an amendment to the previous S1 roadmap that had three updates. Below is Nexon’s message to the community explaining the change:

“Greetings, Descendants. This The First Descendant’s Producer, Lee Beom-jun.

First, I would like to thank all Descendants for enjoying our game.

Lately, I’ve been noticing some concern among you all regarding our Season 1 update rhythm. In light of this feedback, we’ve made the decision to revise our schedule.

In summary, we’re bringing forward the update date from October 30th to October 10th.

Originally, the plan for the schedule called for regular monthly updates prior to each new content rollout.

However, I have to admit that I’ve failed to fully meet your expectations.

Instead of releasing three separate installments, the first season will now be distributed as two updates. The first update is scheduled for August 29th, while the second will follow on October 10th.

Additionally, we’ve started looking into the techniques for updating our systems as we approach future seasons.

To make this happen, we’ll combine our third update from Season 1 with the second one. As you’ve seen earlier, this combined update is scheduled for October 10th.

Currently, the Dev team is working on continuous updates and hotfixes since our official launch.

As an enthusiastic follower, I’m thrilled to share that we’re making some exciting changes from within. We’re streamlining our development process, aiming for greater efficiency, and we’re also on the lookout for talented individuals to join our team. The goal is to create an even more engaging experience for all of us!

We will do our best to prepare better updates that will make you satisfied.

Thank you.”
