Arknights – Near Light Event Teaser
Arknights Near Light Limited Event Brings the Radiant Knight
Another CG-animated Arknights trailer lays out the premise of Near Light while introducing players to the event’s marquee Operators: Flametail and Nearl the Radiant Knight.
Flametail was first introduced in the Maria Nearl event and had a role in April 2022’s Pinus Slyvestris mini-event as well. She’s a 6-Star Vanguard Operator. Meanwhile, though Nearl already exists in Arknights as a 5-Star Defender, Nearl the Radiant Knight is a 6-Star Alternate Operator for the character. She has among the highest attack stats of all Operators in the game and has a special skill that allows her to be deployed without counting towards the Unit Limit. Like Alternate Operators Skadi the Corrupting Heart and Ch’en the Holungday, Nearl the Radiant Knight has animated character art.
Another preview for the Near Light event properly detailed other Arknights Operators being added to the playable roster.
Besides Flametail and the new Nearl, Near Light will reward players with Wild Mane, a free 5-Star Vanguard Operator. The banners for Nearl the Radiant Knight and Flametail also have a chance of dropping the 5-Star Caster Corroserum. Corroserum is the second “Blast Caster”-type Operator. This archetype was previously monopolized by the 6-Star Caster Ifrit. Two new Operators, Rhodes Island intern Honeyberry and store assistant Pudding, will be added to the in-game Certificate Shop. Finally, a new 1-Star Robotic unit will be added to the free Recruitment system: the Archer-class Justice Knight. Cosmetic skins will also be sold for Operators Pallas, Rosa, Andreana, and Myrtle.
The Arknights Near Light event begins on April 28, 2022, and ends on May 19, 2022. The game is available on iOS and Android.

Nearl The Radiant Knight & Flametail Banner – Arknights Near Light Banner
Coming back to Kazimierz, Nearl the Radiant Knight is a 6-star Guard. Her third skill can summon a ‘Blazing Sun’, dealing True damage to nearby enemies and stunning them for a short period. Also, her talent enables her attacks to ignore 20% of an enemy’s defense.
Arknights Near Light – Flametail
The leading role of Pinus Sylvestris has finally come to Rhodes Island as a 6-star Vanguard. Her third skill allows her to gain a certain percentage of both Physical and Arts Dodge. After dodging an attack, her next attack deals two hits and attacks all blocked enemies.
Corroserum
Corroserum is a 5-star Blast Caster, sharing the same branch as Ifrit, who can deal AOE Arts damage in a long liner range. His second skill can silence the targets for a short period.
Wild Mane
As a 5-star Vanguard, Wild Mane is the bonus operator that can be obtained for free in the Near Light event. Her second skill expands her attack range and moderately pushes the target. After her first deployment, all undeployed Guard Operators’ deployment cost will be reduced by 1.

As written before, Arknights is a game with a gacha system; that’s why the game is popular in the otaku community. You can collect numerous characters in the game or, as the game called it, Operator. With their unique skill, you can use multiple Operators to kill the enemies..
Arknights is a brilliant way to bring back tower defense in a sci-fi environment, with many new mechanics, improved familiar gameplay elements, and a mix of genres. It contains all from strategy, RPG, gacha, and card collector gameplay elements and uses it all to benefit the main tower defense premise.
An anime adaptation of mobile tower-defense game Arknights is in the works. The production, which was originally announced in November 2021, was detailed further during the game’s Japanese 2nd Anniversary livestream event on January 9, 2022.
As I understand it, the game day cycle lasts for 17 hours (game clock) and the night lasts for about 7 hours (again, game clock).
