Exciting news for fans of AFK Journey! The game is gearing up for its first magical crossover event with the beloved Japanese manga series, Fairy Tail, created by Hiro Mashima. This collaboration promises to infuse the game with even more enchantment and adventure.

Who Are the Guests in AFK Journey’s First Crossover with Fairy Tail?

The crossover event will introduce two iconic characters from Fairy Tail: Natsu Dragneel and Lucy Heartfilia. Both characters will join the game as part of the new Dimensional faction, adding a fresh dynamic to the gameplay.

Natsu Dragneel, known for his fiery spirit and 'burn everything to the ground' attitude, is confirmed as an S-level character. This high ranking suggests he might be a challenging character to acquire. In contrast, Lucy Heartfilia will be an A-level character, potentially making her more accessible to players. While their specific roles or classes are yet to be revealed, the addition of these characters is sure to spice up the game. It will be fascinating to see how Natsu and Lucy integrate with the existing factions and whether they'll shake up the game's meta.

When Is the Crossover Launching?

Mark your calendars! The AFK Journey x Fairy Tail collaboration is set to launch on Android on May 1st, 2025. The duration of the event hasn't been disclosed yet, but the developers have released an exciting trailer that you can watch below.

AFK Journey, unlike its predecessor AFK Arena, offers a 3D open-world RPG experience. This means that the Fairy Tail characters will be rendered in 3D, providing a more immersive experience compared to the traditional flat anime-style images. This aspect is sure to be a hit among players.

Currently, AFK Journey is running an event called Justice Descends, where players can explore the new Celestial Hero, Athalia, and earn Stellar Crystals and Temporal Essences. Additionally, the Dawnlight Revelry event is happening, offering even more rewards. You can find AFK Journey on the Google Play Store to join in on the fun.
