The First Descendantis set to be released on July 2. Nexon’s free-to-play co-op looter shooter is on the path to rival its great rivals Warframe and Destiny 2, and it’s expected to be a popular launch. At launch there are 14 different characters to play, several world zones to explore, and multiple raid-style boss fights that make up the bulk of the endgame. It’s a grind, so we hope you’re ready for a busy week.

As the game is expected to be a popular launch, it’s a good idea to know exactly when you may jump into the game. Servers might be hit hard during the first few hours, so prepare yourselves for a potential queue or some performance issues.
