One of the two new Descendants coming in season 2 is Keelan Ayodele, a Toxic damage dealer similar to Freyna. He’s also the first post-launch male Descendant to be added to the game.

Keelan is coming to The First Descendant on December 5, 2024. He will be available to craft or purchase from the beginning of season 2: Void Chaser, alongside Ultimate Sharen.

As of this writing, it isn’t clear how much real-life money you will need to purchase Keelan. To put things into perspective, Hailey, the ranged DPS introduced in season 1, cost 900 Caliber, which is roughly equivalent to $20. Keelan could be priced similarly. 

Nexon describes Keelan as Albion’s Void Hunter who strikes with “Erosive Corrison” and “deadly speed.” One of his attacks includes dashing through enemies to deal a ton of damage. Surprisingly enough, this ability doesn’t cost MP.

Appearance-wise, Keelan looks a lot like the popular vampire hunter Blade, which, if the fan reception is anything to go by, is a good thing. 

The Void Hunter is part of H.O.U.N.D., a special search unit focused on exploring and researching the void and its many intricacies.

In addition to Keelan, season 2 will add a female Descendant called Ines Rya, who can deal Electric damage to enemies. 

Moreover, Nexon is introducing a new dog companion who will be useful in exploration. The studio has confirmed that your new furry friend can bring you items during exploration and even dismantle gear you aren’t eligible to equip in the game. 

Perhaps one of the biggest additions in season 2 will be the target reward system, which will allow you to earn guaranteed rewards from completing missions.

These are some of the new additions you can expect in the next season. We have a separate guide detailing everything you need to know about the First Descendant Season 2: Void Chaser, so don’t forget to check that out while you’re here.
