SHANGHAI, China – June 5, 2024Lilith Games today announced a new crossover event for AFK Arena with the popular anime series, That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime (also known as TenSura). Starting on June 5, 2024, TenSura’s main protagonist, Rimuru Tempest, and popular character, Shuna, will travel to the continent of Esperia to join the many heroes of AFK Arena. A new themed Voyage of Wonder called “Stone Freed, Water Flows” will depict their new adventure story on this continent.
 
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Season 3 premiered May 2024 and new episodes are releasing every week on various anime platforms. At this point, AFK Arena has chosen to collaborate with TenSura, hoping to bring excitement to AFK Arena's game fans and TenSura's anime fans.
 
Rimuru and Shuna are now free-to-try for AFK Arena players with their own in-game abilities. Rimuru unleashes devastating spells as an intellectual mage. Shuna, his ever-reliable guardian, provides strategic support with intellect-based skills.
 
Just like in the anime, Rimuru possesses the power to name and empower allies though his “Equal Naming” ability. His regenerative abilities are also faithfully recreated, allowing him to bounce back from the brink of defeat. Plus, players will see  Rimuru's iconic slime form when enemies are defeated by him.
 
Meanwhile, Shuna has many abilities that will help allies’ health in battle. For instance, she can anticipate and cancel enemy’s ultimate abilities with “Magic Overwrite.” Shuna then channels her own energy to empower her allies with "Sorcerer's Blessing," a shield that absorbs damage and control effects, but can only be used a limited number of times.
 
AFK Arena took time to faithfully capture the anime duo in its game art, gameplay and game trailer. In addition, the team at Lilith Games worked with the original Japanese voice actors to provide their voices for the characters’ dialogues. To see them in action, see the game trailer below:

There will be 180 Free Summons for all players who play during this event, and each player will receive a free trial of Rimuru and Shuna.

About AFK Arena 
Developed and published by Shanghai-based Lilith Games, AFK Arena is a F2P casual idler game for iOS and Android mobile devices. AFK Arena’s traditional role-playing themes and deep, lore-filled storyline are punctuated by its highly detailed, fairy tale-esque art style and smooth, precise gameplay. Boasting more than 100 hero units from eight separate factions, every hero possesses their own fleshed-out storyline. As the name suggests, AFK Arena “plays itself” while players have the freedom to enjoy the idle experience or take part in the game’s many active objectives, like progressing the storyline, which is divided into chapters. Leveling up in AFK Arena (during idle gameplay) means earning Diamonds, the in-game currency. Rewards are also earned through guild events, clearing labyrinths, completing weekly quests, and competing in ranked battles with other players’ teams. With enough Diamonds, players can summon new heroes and continue climbing the leveling system. Learn more at afkarena.lilith.com.
