DragonSword: Awakening Wiki - FAQ
How many playable heroes are there?
19 at launch, with 4 more confirmed as free post-launch additions (not paid DLC): Ryza, Jerome, Veronica, and Logan, expected in the second half of 2026 with no confirmed date yet.
Is it a gacha game?
No — it's positioned as a premium, one-time-purchase game rather than a character-pull gacha release.
What are Familiars?
Collectible companion creatures separate from the 19 playable Heroes — they assist exploration but aren't combat units you build teams around.
Is Dana the same hero as Donna?
Yes -- this frost summoner (who fights alongside an ice golem named Chako) appears as "Donna" in the official English exchange UI but as "Dana" in official trailers and marketing. Both names refer to the same hero.
