The Christmas event in Blue Lock Rivals introduces the long-awaited Krampus Barou update, a themed expansion that blends holiday content with high-intensity gameplay. This update delivers a new limited character variant, exclusive awakening moves, new bundles, seasonal cosmetics, and several new codes to redeem during the event window. Players also gain access to additional bug fixes and the teaser for next week’s major release featuring Loki and Charles.
Blue Lock Rivals Krampus Barou Update
Krampus Barou is a limited holiday version of Barou built around overwhelming offensive pressure. His kit focuses on power shots, aggressive steals, and heavy-impact dribbling tools. The theming draws on a “blizzard and beast” motif, reinforcing his role as a high-tempo, high-dominance striker.
Krampus Barou Moves
• Blizzard Fang Shot (C): A powerful, fast-traveling shot that excels at mid-to-long range finishing.
• Crash Steal (C): A forceful steal option that breaks through opponents who overcommit.
• Krampus Chop Dribble (V): A decisive slicing dribble that creates space while maintaining forward momentum.
• Predator Krampus (B): A burst-driven movement tool that enhances tracking and offensive positioning.
These moves make Krampus Barou an excellent pick for players who enjoy direct, aggressive play and heavy shot pressure.
Secret Awakening for Barou, Lavinho, and Bachira
A new shared Secret Awakening has been introduced for Barou, Lavinho, and Bachira. Unlocking this set grants access to a new suite of awakening moves that enhance scoring potential and create sudden tempo shifts during matches.
Secret Awakening Moves
• Krampus Strike (C): A high-impact awakening shot that punishes weak defensive setups.
• Krampus Greed (V): A momentum-forward dribble or finisher that reinforces dominance during awakened states.
This awakening ties the three characters together thematically, creating a trio that benefits from explosive offensive synergy.
