Epic Pass – A Victor’s Prestige Season
A new epic pass titled “A Victor’s Prestige Season” has also started as we speak! For the first time in the history of epic passes, players will be able to collect an Epic skin made by one of the players themselves! Yes, the skin we are talking about is none other than E7WC 2022 Choux which was made in honor of the winner of Epic Seven World Cup 2022. Players can purchase the Epic Pass upgrade by paying the 900 sky stones amount or 1800 skystones if they would like to unlock the skin on top of it as well. We would say it’s always highly recommended for players to purchase the upgraded version of the Epic Pass for 900 skystones since they can get some amazing rewards that cost way more than 900 skystones. Some of the core rewards to be highlighted are – Gold Transmit Stones x 6, Covenant Bookmarks x 15, MolaGora x 3, Epic Artifact Charms, Greater Artifact Charms, Silver Transmit Stones, etc.
Epic Seven’s epic passes are like battle pass in other similar games where players can receive additional rewards by simply playing the game and participating in the different available game modes. Majorly, players earn experience for the epic pass by spending energy, using their arena flags, and using their labyrinth entry tokens. Abyss Challenge tokens are also used to earn massive epic pass experience on a daily basis. The entire pass is divided into 30 unique levels with each reward offering a free reward and a premium reward. Premium rewards are only available to players who have purchased the epic pass.
