How to unlock Hailey in The First Descendant

Hailey is the 16th Descendant in the game.

Hailey is the newest character introduced with the Season 1 update on August 29, 2024, in The First Descendant. She could be a force to be reckoned with as she is only the second Descendant after Viessa to have the Chill Attribute.

Hailey’s role in the game is of a Ranged DPS and uses a frozen sniper cannon that shoots Chill-infused beams and bullets. Like all other Descendants, you can unlock Hailey in two ways:

  • Spend 900 Caliber
  • Craft Hailey

Undoubtedly, the first method is the fastest way to get her in the game but it costs real money, about $19.99 as you’ll need to purchase the 1,060 Caliber pack.

The second method of unlocking Hailey is by crafting her, but for that, you’ll need to grind the game a little.
