The leak suggests that the update will introduce new characters like Ayaka and Yoimiya, both of whom currently exist in beta stages of the game.
The last update in May added a host of summer-themed events and activities to enjoy, including a new boss and a prologue quest that will soon lead players to Izanuma.
