Epic Seven Secret Summer 2026 Update Overview

Epic Seven's summer season has officially arrived, and this year's Secret Summer update is shaping up to be one of the most exciting content drops in recent memory. Two brand-new limited heroes are on the horizon, a stunning Moonlight 5-star is waiting in the wings, and the game is handing out free Moonlight summons like never before. If you've been saving your bookmarks, now is the time to pay attention—because missing these limited units means waiting an entire year for their return.

If you're planning to secure these new heroes, LDShop offers a quick and reliable way to top up your Skystones so you're ready when the banners go live.

Free Moonlight Summons & Daily Rewards

Running from June 25 through August 26, 2026, the Secret Summer event brings one of the most generous reward structures we've seen this year. Here's what you can expect:

• Daily Free Moonlight Summons – 5 free summons available every single day
• Cumulative Rewards – Keep summoning to earn milestone rewards, including 2 guaranteed 5★ Moonlight Summon Tickets
• Burning Passion Buffs – Active at all times for faster account progression
• Daily Quick Battling & Energy Support – Extra resources to help you farm efficiently

On top of that, there's a redeemable coupon code up for grabs:

Enter it on Android or the PC client (iOS users, unfortunately, cannot redeem codes directly) and claim:

 

10 Leif	3 Epic Equipment Charms	3 Epic Accessory Charms
3 Epic Artifact Charms	1,000,000 Gold

 

That's a solid head start for anyone looking to build up their roster or stockpile resources ahead of the anniversary.

 

Eye of the Abyss Fumyr

Eye of the Abyss Fumyr is the first limited character debuting in the Secret Summer update. She's an Earth Mage with strong base stats, putting her on par with top-tier heroes like Luna and Dark Diene. 

Her kit is built around control and single-target removal. Her defining feature is the ability to temporarily remove the enemy's frontline hero from battle entirely, with this effect bypassing Effect Resistance. She also brings team-wide pushback, self-turn cycling, and access to stun through her Soul Burn. Overall, Fumyr is shaping up to be a high-impact control Mage capable of shutting down key threats on the opposing team. 

She's a limited hero, so her banner won't return for at least a year—players looking to add her should plan their resources accordingly. 

Her exclusive artifact, Refracted Desire, is a Mage-exclusive 5★ artifact obtainable through the Secret Summer event. At max limit break, it grants a 100% chance to increase the caster's Effectiveness when they take the first turn, and a 100% chance to increase their Combat Readiness by 20% when an ally takes the first turn. It's a powerful tool for any Mage and a welcome free addition to the summer event rewards. 

 

Aube

Following Fumyr, the second summer limited hero is Aube. Details on her kit are still under wraps, but she's expected to be revealed before Fumyr's banner concludes—giving players a chance to compare both before committing their resources.

If history is any guide, summer units are consistently strong, and Aube is likely to be no exception. The smart play? Wait for her skill preview before pulling the trigger on either banner.

 

Tidal Rited Elvira

For those with an eye on the Moonlight roster, Tidal Rited Elvira is the next major ML5-star on the horizon. She's expected to arrive roughly one month from now, following the conclusion of the current Ruele of Light banner and the subsequent two-week cooldown period.

Her S3 animation has already been praised by the community as some of the best work the art team has produced. Given the track record of Moonlight heroes, she's almost certain to make a splash in the meta. If you're a fan of high-impact ML units, start planning your Mystic Medals now.

 

Limited Rerun Banner and Other Highlights

A Triple Limited Rerun Banner is also on the way, and it works a bit differently from standard banners. You will be able to select three old limited heroes to feature on their banner, then summon specifically for those choices. This banner will feature older limited heroes, including Argent Waves Hwayoung and Aram—both strong limited units worth picking up if you missed them the first time around. 

Beyond the new summer heroes, a new skin for Empyrean Ilynav is being introduced—and it's a bunny girl theme, a fun and playful design that fans have been hoping to see for a while. Given Ilynav's passive continues to keep her relevant in the current meta, this skin is a welcome addition for long-time players. 

And don't forget—the 8th Anniversary is just around the corner. Based on last year's timeline, we can expect a major announcement livestream as early as next week, likely accompanied by even more generous rewards (last year, players received an ML5 ticket). If you're starting a new account or returning to the game, this is the perfect time to jump in. 

For new players, the revamped Newbie Mystic Banner is also worth noting. It offers discounted summons and updates over time to include newer ML5s, giving fresh accounts a fighting chance at building a competitive roster. 

 

Final Thoughts 

This year's Secret Summer update is packed with content—two new limited heroes, a stacked rerun banner, free Moonlight summons, and anniversary celebrations just ahead. Whether you're a veteran player looking to stay competitive or a newcomer jumping in at the perfect time, there's plenty to be excited about. With so much on offer, this is easily one of the best moments of the year to be playing Epic Seven. If your Skystone stash is looking a little light, a quick trip to LDShop can get you banner-ready in no time.
