On October 12, 2023, XFLAG announced their second collaboration with JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, particularly Stardust Crusaders, and their mobile game Monster Strike. The event will begin on Sunday, October 15, 2023, and end on November 2, 2023.
Their first collaboration with JoJo was a Stone Ocean event in July 2022. Those Part 6 gacha units and some quests will reappear during this collaboration. The previous Jolyne, Part 6 Jotaro, and Weather Report units can now undergo Transcension: Kai, meaning they will further evolve into stronger units with new art. The Part 6 Jotaro units are also having their names changed to include “SO”.
Limited Gacha Characters
Five collaboration characters from the Stardust Crusaders anime and five characters from the first collaboration with the Stone Ocean anime (Jolyne Cujoh, Ermes Costello, Foo Fighters, Weather Report and Jotaro Kujo) will be available in a limited gacha pool from October 15, 2023 to November 2, 2023. The chances of unlocking these collaboration characters as team members will be greatly increased.
