In FFVII: The First Soldier’s Surf of the Water God event, Leviathan, the Water God himself has shown up due to the unusual heat on the Training Ground. All these matches have caused the surface to burn up and something must be done about it. Leviathan has decided to take matters into his own hands and will be dousing random areas with water, causing them to flood. Players will have to put on their swimming costumes if they want to survive these new hazard zones.

Alongside turning hot areas into the sea, Leviathan will also be sprouting Water God Medals which can be used to unlock event rewards such as watermelon outfits, swimwear, accessories, emotes, gun skins, and more. Other ways of earning the medals include challenges, jumping on water fountains, defeating monsters, and secret boxes.

Additionally, the Speciality Shop will feature a special skin from the past – the Zack’s Swimwear outfit from Crisis Core – Final Fantasy VII, which will be available until July 24th. A special Shinra Pack will also be available until August 10th. It provides a bonus as it can boost the number of Water God Medals earned by 50% so be sure to get it ASAP. Finally, everyone will also receive the Leviathan Helm head accessory as a login bonus.
