Evolution of Banners: 1999 to Present – Current, Upcoming, and Historical Designs

In the realm of gacha games, the banner history of Reverse: 1999 has unique characteristics that set it apart. Notably, there is a distinct Chinese (CN) version which releases content several months before the Global (GBL) version. This staggered rollout allows players to anticipate future character availability with relative ease, as they can track upcoming content effectively—generally four to five months ahead of its global debut.

This article serves as a comprehensive resource for players who want to stay informed about currently featured characters, forthcoming banners, and a detailed history of past banners specifically for the Global Server. Also noteworthy is the fact that the game features three distinct types of banners: Limited 6-star Debut Banners, Rerun 6-star Banners, and Water Banners, the latter of which allows players to select 6-star characters under varied pity rules.
