Chapter 3 of TRIBE NINE unfolds in Neo Chiyoda City, a floating subculture hub rebuilt around Akihabara after the former Chiyoda City was ravaged by the “Chiyoda Battle,” a conflict sparked by the royal Otori Family. As the story follows Q and his mysterious connection to this city, new faces emerge—including the Akiba Siblings of the Akiba Ninja Legion, former retainers of the Otori Family.
In this unfamiliar setting, Yo Kuronaka and his companions face a new death game, this time built around live streaming. Residents must compete for views, and those who fail to meet their quotas face inevitable death. Despite the unusually welcoming ruler, #4 Magata Zenichi, the city enforces harsh rules beneath its vibrant surface. Keep an eye out for striking city visuals inspired by real-life Akihabara, including areas like “Television Studio” and “Maid Avenue.”

Hinagiku Akiba makes her debut as a ★3 playable character in the limited-time Event Synchro: Maid for You, introduced with the Ver1.1.0 update. Hinagiku Akiba's most distinctive mechanic is her “Charged Attack,” which can be activated by pressing and holding her Primary Attack. This action boasts both offensive and defensive capabilities because if Hinagiku is attacked in this state by an enemy, a Deflect Counterattack is automatically triggered.
Alongside her arrival, the ★3 Tension Card “Professional Maid” is now available through the Event Synchro: Tension Card Lovely Impact. This card boosts Primary Attack damage following a successful Deflect Counterattack, making it a perfectly compatible with Hinagiku Akiba's distinct ability to perform Deflect Counterattacks, maximizing her combat potential.
Support Contract: Revenio, the latest season of TRIBE NINE’s battle pass feature, is now live following the Ver1.1.0 update. By upgrading with paid Enigma Entities, players can unlock the Armed Support tier and earn exclusive rewards, including limited-time skins for Q and Hinagiku Akiba, along with the ★3 Tension Card “Cornerstone of Supremacy.”
