The Summer Update for Blue Lock Rivals officially dropped on June 21, 2025, bringing major changes to gameplay, visuals, and character balance. This patch not only overhauls the King Awakening experience but also includes Loki’s Balance Update Part 1, new redeem codes, quality-of-life fixes, and bug resolutions.
Here’s a full breakdown of the Summer Update content and why it’s a crucial turning point for competitive players.
King Awakening Revamp – New VFX, SFX, and Model
One of the most impactful changes is the complete revamp of King Awakening, the iconic transformation mechanic.
New animations have been added for King Awakening, making the transition more dynamic and powerful.
Updated character model enhances the visual experience.
New sound effects (SFX) and visual effects (VFX) increase immersion during clutch moments.
Whether you’re activating it mid-match or setting up a power play, the King Awakening now feels more impactful than ever.
Loki Balance Update – Part 1
Loki, one of the core units in Blue Lock Rivals, begins receiving balance tweaks. This patch brings Part 1, with the second phase set for release next week.
Master Style rarity increased:
From:
0.015 + 0.15To:
0.0175 + 0.175
Master Flow rarity also increased to match.
New goal animation and the stunning Godspeed Tunnel visual effect have been added.
The buffs make Loki more viable for competitive players and increase the chances of unlocking his strongest styles and flows.
