HoYoverse's Tears of Themis unveils its latest update: "Ballad of the Dunes," a collaboration with Gansu Province's Culture & Tourism. This exciting crossover event merges the captivating world of detective work with the rich cultural heritage of Dunhuang, a city nestled on the Gobi Desert's edge.
What's New in "Ballad of the Dunes"?
This historical romance mystery unfolds amidst the ancient Silk Road. Players will unravel intriguing cases steeped in the region's vibrant past. The event introduces four new MR cards, each showcasing a different facet of Dunhuang's culture and featuring Luke, Artem, Vyn, and Marius. Expect stunning visuals inspired by flying apsaras, intricate murals, and the traditional pipa.

Each card boasts a unique story: Luke's "In the Footsteps of Silk," Artem's "Serenade of the Soul," Vyn's "Reverberation Through Time," and Marius's "Void of Creation," all accompanied by Private Messages offering a deeper dive into this thousand-year-old journey.
