Haru and Renoa Get Different September 17 Acquisition Routes
Epic Seven is preparing to add Haru and Renoa as part of its Chaos Zero Nightmare collaboration. Their official Hero previews establish the same starting date, September 17, 2026, but the two characters will not be obtained in the same way.
| Hero | Official introduction | Acquisition route | Start date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Haru | Academy Disciplinary Committee member with a distinctive sense of style | Limited Summon | September 17, 2026 |
| Renoa | Poet of the Black Rose who leads the SS Nightmare | Encounter with the Black Rose 7-Day Check-In | September 17, 2026 |
The separate acquisition methods are the most important distinction between the two reveals. Players interested in Haru will need to watch for her Limited Summon, while Renoa is attached to a seven-day check-in event instead.
Haru's Limited Summon Starts September 17
Haru's New Hero Preview introduces her as an Academy Disciplinary Committee member with an individual sense of style. Epic Seven also confirms directly in the reveal that players will be able to meet Haru through a Limited Summon starting September 17.
The Limited Summon designation makes Haru's acquisition method different from Renoa's. The reveal establishes the opening date and limited nature of the summon without requiring the two Heroes to share the same distribution method.
Renoa Comes Through Encounter with the Black Rose
Renoa receives a separate New Hero Preview. She is introduced as the poet of the Black Rose and the leader of the SS Nightmare, tying her identity directly to the Chaos Zero Nightmare side of the crossover.
Instead of a Limited Summon, Epic Seven says players will be able to acquire Renoa through the Encounter with the Black Rose 7-Day Check-In. The check-in event begins September 17, putting Renoa's acquisition route on the same starting date as Haru's summon while keeping the two methods separate.
- Hero: Renoa
- Event: Encounter with the Black Rose
- Format: 7-Day Check-In
- Start: September 17, 2026
The Reveals Continue the Chaos Zero Nightmare Crossover
Haru and Renoa's previews build on Epic Seven's previously announced collaboration with Chaos Zero Nightmare. Smilegate confirmed during its eighth-anniversary update plans that key combatants from Chaos Zero Nightmare would cross over as Epic Seven Heroes.
The September 10 reveals provide concrete acquisition information for Haru and Renoa ahead of the collaboration content arriving later in the month. Haru is positioned as the limited-summon Hero beginning September 17, while Renoa is connected to the seven-day Encounter with the Black Rose check-in beginning on the same date.
What Begins on September 17
- Haru's Limited Summon opens.
- Renoa's Encounter with the Black Rose 7-Day Check-In begins.
- Both Heroes become part of Epic Seven's ongoing Chaos Zero Nightmare crossover rollout through their respective acquisition routes.
Players therefore have two separate character releases to account for on September 17: a limited summon for Haru and a check-in-based acquisition path for Renoa.
