What to know

  • Psyche is unlocked through the Secret Letter system, not through random gacha pulls.
  • You need 30 “Thought: Psyche” shards to unlock her permanently.
  • Her shards are obtained through Covert Commissions and limited-time events like Immersive Theatre.
  • Completing daily tasks and event missions is the fastest way to gather Secret Letter Clues for her unlock.

After progressing through the early story of Duet Night Abyss, you’ll gain access to character unlock systems. Psyche, one of the game’s featured characters, can be unlocked for free by collecting Secret Letters and converting them into Thoughts. This process takes consistent play, but no gacha pulls are required.

How to unlock Psyche in Duet Night Abyss

Here is how you can unlock Psyche in Duet Night Abyss:

Step 1: Progress through the story

Unlock the Immersive Theater mode by completing the early game story missions. This mode becomes available once you’ve finished the tutorial sections.

Step 2: Enter the Immersive Theater mode

Open the Immersive Theater from the event menu. Psyche is featured here for 28 days from launch, making her the first character you can target directly.

Step 3: Complete Immersive Theater stages

Play through the event stages to earn Psyche Secret Letters and Letters for her signature weapon.
You can obtain up to 65 Psyche Secret Letters total through consistent stage completions.

Step 4: Use earned Letters to unlock Psyche

After earning enough Secret Letters, exchange them in the character menu to unlock Psyche. Her full unlock requires the total reward threshold from the event.

Step 5: Continue farming in Nocturnal Echoes (after 28 days)

Once Psyche’s Immersive Theater period ends, her Secret Letters will move to the Nocturnal Echoes weekly boss mode.
She will replace one of the current reward characters—Tabethe, Truffle, Filbert, Yale, or Rhythm.

Step 6: Maintain progress through daily and weekly runs

Keep clearing Nocturnal Echoes once Psyche joins its pool to continue earning her Letters or those for future new characters.

Tips for faster progress

  • Focus exclusively on Psyche’s Letter instead of dividing Clues among multiple characters.
  • Participate in limited events whenever available—they often provide bonus Clues or direct shards.
  • Always complete your daily Commissions to maintain a steady flow of Letters.
  • Use your highest difficulty Covert Commissions for better shard drops.

Getting Psyche unlocked

To unlock Psyche in Duet Night Abyss, finish the main story prologue, collect Secret Letter Clues, exchange them for Psyche’s Letter, and repeatedly complete Covert Commissions until you’ve gathered 30 Thoughts. Stay consistent with dailies and events to unlock her efficiently without relying on luck.
