As the new progression system gets available, you will earn extra rewards for playing matches and completing missions. Apart from XP, you will be able to earn Kingdom Credits, which is a brand-new currency coming to the game. We have discussed about them in detail below.

New Currency: Kingdom Credits

Kingdom Credits will be a free currency that you can use to get the rewards from previous battle passes. You will have to go to the newly introduced Accessory Store section in the Store, and you will find four new rewards available every week that you can unlock by spending Kingdom Credits.

Starting with Episode 7, Agent Recruitment Events will take the place of Agent Contracts. These events will begin right after the release of every new agent, and the contract for the new agent will begin automatically. However, these events will last for a limited period of time, and you will then have to unlock the agent by spending VP or Kingdom Credits.
