The first official "Sukufes Big Live" has been announced! It will run from April 16th 15:00 JST to April 20th 14:59 JST!

Play lives and earn Medals to get special rewards, including past event cards! All cards (SRs and URs both!) up to the "Refresh Through Hiking" event will be available to purchase using your Medals~

For this SBL, first year members will give a boost to the Medals you can earn from Lives! The following songs will be playable during SBL (3 times per song for a total of 9 plays per day):

• Sore wa Bokutachi no Kiseki
• Strawberry Trapper
• Starlight

To celebrate the first official SBL, a commemorative log-in bonus is currently active! Log in between now and April 21 to receive rewards, including 30 Loveca Stars!

In case you missed the test SBL, here's how it works:

Play lives with other players and earn Medals! Clearing live missions and earning high scores will earn you more Medals. Score high to end up on the Daily Ranking Board! Each day, the highest scores are added up and Medals can be earned by top ranking players. There are also Medals to be earned for everyone who plays and contributes to the total cooperative score!!

Additionally, there was an error in the test SBL where SP skill activations were not being counted properly, and thus players were not receiving rewards correctly. This has been corrected, so you can expect your SP skills to be accurately counted from now on!
