Free 1,000 Blue Krystals Login Event
To celebrate the New Year, the dev team has implemented a special 1-day only login reward of 1,000 Blue Krystals. Log in before reset at 3 PM EST later today to claim this reward.
New Year Login Bonuses
Log in between December 31 and January 2 to get 3,000 Blue Krystals. Players who log in after January 2 can earn up to 6,000 Blue Krystals.
New Year's Inbox Gifts
Along with the 1,000 Blue Krystals login reward, Applibot has sent everyone 3,000 Blue Krystals, one 5-star Weapon Guaranteed Draw Ticket, 20 Draw Tickets, and 24 Grindstones. Applibot will distribute these rewards to players who log in to Ever Crisis until January 14 at 5:59 PM EST.
New Year Daily Free x10 Draw
Starting December 31 and going until January 24, players can do a free daily banner multi for 240 free weapon summons.
Vol.1- Vol.3 Free 5-star Weapon Guaranteed Multis
From December 31 to January 11, there will be three free banners. These banners guarantee at least one 5-star weapon pull each.
I pulled three 5-star weapons on my Vol.1 banner summon today. Don't miss out on the opportunity! Players have until January 11 at 4:59 PM EST to summon on the Vol.1-Vol.3 banners.
New Year Step-Up Draw
Applibot has introduced a New Year's Step-Up banner. It has four steps, and players can do up to two rotations.
The first three steps guarantee at least one or more 4-star weapons, and the fourth step guarantees at least one 5-star weapon. Steps 3 and 4 also have Mythril Ore bonuses of 5 and 10, respectively.
Most of this banner requires the P2P Red Krystals only, but the first step is free, and every player can do the first multi.
New Year's Banner for Cloud & Sephiroth
Cloud and Sephiroth are the stars of the New Year's banner, each coming with a Fire-themed costume, with Cloud's Fire Arcanum and Sephiroth's Fire Mastery gear, respectively.
Cloud's newest weapon, Skysplitter, is a PHY Fire-type weapon, and Sephiroth'sRadiant Edge is a debuff weapon that can inflict Fire Resist Down and PDEF Down.
The release of this banner means that every Element in the game now has at least one corresponding costume that buffs it. Maybe now, players can begin to look forward to costume reruns.

It won't be long before Yuffie is playable, but first, players get to challenge her as a boss! The New Year's Event takes place in Wutai, and Yuffie is up to her usual tricks, attempting to rob everyone blind of their materia. Take her down using your best characters and Fire weapons. The New Year's weapons and outfits grant bonuses to Event item drops.
The New Year's Seasonal Story will have two parts, with the exclusive limited-time reward of part 1 being Aerith's Dawn's Prayers, the first F2P double DEF weapon. Part 2 will have a similar weapon for Glenn.
The Wily Hunter lasts until January 11. Part 1, Yuffie is sporting her default costume. Part 2, Yuffie is wearing her alternative costume, giving fans a first look at how she will be once she's playable.
With all the New Year festivities, all the free summons, and the Steam client up and running, there hasn't been a better time to start Final Fantasy 7 Ever Crisis. Stay tuned for an updated Rerolling Guide and Beginner's Guide!
