Schwarz is Finally Coming!
UPDATE: the Global PV for the [Heart of Surging Flame] Event has been released, and is linked below.
Early today, Arknights JP held a livestream where some very exciting news was revealed! I'm going to do my best to share what information I've been able to find (I don't speak JP), and I'll update this post with further news today as I find it. If you speak JP, and see any mistakes or anything to add, please let me know in the comments and I'll update the post. Cheers!
DISCLAIMER: Until it is officially announced for EN, we don't know for sure what of this will be coming. So far, all global servers have received the same content, though, so it is reasonable to assume EN will be the same as JP.
[Heart of Surging Flame Summer] Event
As can be seen in the image above, the main Heart of Surging Flame Summer Event will be starting on 4/29, which is the day the current Event ends. It will run for two weeks until 5/13. This event comes with Event Operations, lotto box type rewards, furniture themes, summer skins... tons of stuff! But the biggest anticipation is the arrival of the much beloved Schwarz!

A free 10 Pull?!

Contingency Contract in June??
Here is a Summary of the info from the great comments below:
- "2. A new format event is scheduled to launch in June" "*Details will be posted later on the Arknights Twitter"
- The word choice does suggest that the unannounced event in June is of a new format, and the CC event would be a new format.
- He dropped hints such as allowing doctors to choose different conditions and trying different tactics. This also suggests CC type content.
