7DS Grand Cross Winter Festival Update Packs Events, Shops & Bonuses

❄️ The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross Rolls Out Major Holiday Update

The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross has launched a large holiday-themed update following maintenance on December 17–18, bringing a dense lineup of seasonal events, limited-time draws, special shops, cosmetic sales, and PvE challenges. The update serves as the game’s primary Winter Holiday content drop, running through late December and into early January.

Alongside festive decorations and login rewards, the update introduces a new Knighthood Boss Battle season, anniversary sales, and multiple Coin Shop events designed to reward both casual logins and dedicated daily play.

🛠️ Maintenance Overview and Update Scope

The update was deployed following scheduled maintenance on December 17, with adjusted maintenance timing announced shortly before completion. As with major content updates, several new systems, events, and shop rotations became available immediately after servers reopened.

Players should note that visuals shown in announcements may differ slightly from the final in-game implementation, as some screenshots were captured from development builds.

🎁 Holiday Season Special Step Up Draw Begins

A central feature of the update is the Holiday Season Special Step Up Draw, available immediately after maintenance and running until before the January 1 update maintenance.

This limited-time draw offers players a structured summoning format designed to reward continued participation across multiple steps. Players are encouraged to review the in-game draw notice for full hero and rate details before committing Diamonds.

⚔️ Knighthood Boss Battle Season 3 — Demonic Beast Akumu

Knighthood activities receive a major boost with the arrival of:

Knighthood Boss Battle <Season 3>: Demonic Beast Akumu

• Event Period: December 20 – January 17

• Akumu will appear as the active Knighthood Boss throughout the event window

Knighthoods can work together to challenge Akumu, earn ranking rewards, and compete for seasonal placement while strengthening cooperative play during the holiday period.

🛍️ New Limited-Time Bundle Added

A new bundle has been added to the shop following the update maintenance and will remain available until December 25.

While limited-time, the notice clarifies that this bundle or its components may return in future events, giving players flexibility in deciding whether to purchase now or wait.

🎄 Gifts From the Blessing Tree — Daily Login Rewards
