Seven Deadly Sins: Origin Adds Ban in Next Update, Completing the Sins Lineup
Ban's addition closes out the core Seven Deadly Sins roster in Origin, giving the open-world RPG its full original lineup as it passes its half-anniversary.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
Netmarble aired a half-anniversary broadcast for Seven Deadly Sins: Origin on August 21. The next major update adds Ban as an SSR character, completing the Seven Deadly Sins lineup. The update also brings the Grave Robbing Festival event from August 26 and a new solo-only weekly content called Labyrinth from September 2.
Ban arrives as an SSR character with three weapon types: a physical three-section staff, a great sword of the earth, and a dark gauntlet. The staff grants the Chain effect, raising defense penetration and critical rate, while the great sword's Berserker move resets normal skill cooldowns and strengthens them on reuse. The gauntlet focuses on dark attribute damage through the Grave Robbing skill.
The half-anniversary Grave Robbing Festival runs from August 26, followed by Labyrinth on September 2, a solo-only weekly mode where players pick events and battles while gathering growth materials. New minerals and awakening promotion stone crafting methods are added, and SSR Meliodas is obtainable for free. The game is available on PC (Steam), PS5, iOS, and Android.
