Etheria: Restart has revealed fresh details for its upcoming season, SS2.
This winter-themed season, titled Rime Tiara, will introduce a wave of new features.
New Animuses, an enhanced Shell System, and the debut of Ability Awakening are all scheduled to launch next month!
While Sword of Convallaria is drawing attention with its major Witcher 3 collaboration, Etheria: Restart may steal the spotlight with its latest update. XD Games unveiled the Rime Tiara update during their latest livestream and confirmed its release date: December 4th.
Perfect for players in the northern hemisphere, the Rime Tiara season will chill things up with the introduction of the Everwinter Tribunal—a frozen Contender Realm arena designed to elevate your Summit Arena battles.
As with any top mobile RPG, the highlight is the addition of new characters. Rime Tiara delivers big here, introducing five brand-new Animuses to expand your team options. Don’t forget to check out our Etheria: Restart tier list to see where newcomers like Lowan, Palin, and Fiamelia rank.

Restart, reboot, rewind
You could probably crack a joke about freezing, given Etheria: Restart’s virtual world—but I’ll pass. Regardless, this season promises to be packed with content.
One of the most significant updates is Ability Awakening. Now available for Turandot, Sania, and RC-77, it unlocks powerful new buffs—three SR Animuses per season will be eligible for awakening going forward. This arrives alongside a complete overhaul of the Shell System, a slate of holiday-themed in-game events, and an all-new battle pass.
If you’re interested in exploring more of XD Games’ titles, Sword of Convallaria—boasting its new Witcher 3 collaboration launching today—is also worth a look. Head over to our Sword of Convallaria tier list to gear up for what’s next!
