Progression in Akayuki comes from fighting other players and enemies to earn experience and increase your level. The maximum level is 50, and every five levels you can gain access to new blades, making those milestones useful points to review your equipment.
Step-by-Step Progression Guide
1. Learn your controls before focusing on levels
Open the controls menu and familiarize yourself with the available attacks and movement abilities. The beginner guide recommends doing this early because understanding your controls makes learning combat combinations easier. A stronger katana alone will not automatically win fights, so build familiarity with combat alongside your equipment. [src-e033a15f01]
You can also adjust your mouse sensitivity to make tracking opponents more comfortable. The guide suggests that increasing sensitivity can help you turn the camera more quickly when opponents move around you, particularly during fast PvP encounters. Treat this as a setting to test rather than a requirement to maximize. [src-e033a15f01]
2. Fight players and enemies to earn experience
Combat is the confirmed route to experience: fight other players and enemies to increase your level. Both are part of the progression loop, so your leveling activity does not have to revolve exclusively around PvP.
The supplied information does not identify experience amounts, enemy locations, or a fastest leveling route. It also does not establish whether fighting players or enemies is more efficient. Focus on the confirmed loop—combat, experience, and level increases—rather than assuming one opponent type provides better returns.
3. Check blade access every five levels
At each five-level milestone, check which new blades you can access. The record says you can gain access to new blades at these intervals; it does not say that a blade is automatically placed in your inventory.
The beginner guide recommends reviewing available blades as you level and working toward better equipment. Different blades can provide additional passives and better walk speed, so changing your weapon can affect more than its appearance. Compare the benefits of available equipment rather than treating every new blade as a purely cosmetic unlock. [src-e033a15f01]
No specific blade names, acquisition costs, or unlock requirements are provided here. Use the five-level interval as a reminder to review your options, not as a guarantee that every available blade is immediately obtainable.
4. Check the forge as you develop your equipment
The forge is another feature to investigate while progressing. According to the beginner guide, it allows you to craft new blades and develop your equipment, providing another way to improve your character alongside leveling. [src-e033a15f01]
The supplied material does not give recipes, material requirements, or crafting steps. Check the forge for its available options, but do not assume that reaching a particular level is the only requirement for crafting a blade.
5. Repeat the loop up to level 50
Continue fighting for experience, reviewing blade access every five levels, and checking equipment options as you progress. The confirmed level cap is 50.
Keep combat practice part of that loop. The guide emphasizes that better equipment does not replace familiarity with attacks, movement, and combinations. [src-e033a15f01] No post-cap progression system or special level-50 reward is established by the supplied information.
Other Features to Check Early
Before taking on more difficult fights, the beginner guide recommends checking two character-setup features: [src-e033a15f01]
- Codes menu: Open it and redeem any available codes. No active codes or specific rewards are supplied. [src-e033a15f01]
- Character menu: Look for the option to roll your family name. The material does not explain family effects or establish which results are preferable. [src-e033a15f01]
These are supplementary setup checks, not confirmed sources of experience. The supported leveling method remains fighting players and enemies.
