While there are no official news regarding the 3.8 rerun banners, players can expect reruns for Robin, Firefly, Boothill, and Rappa as they are expected to be involved in the 3.8 Finality Mission. Rappa's rerun is also very likely since she hasn't had any reruns since her release.

Other 3.8 reruns might also include Fugue and Lingsha as there's a chance they could synergize well with The Dahlia's kit.
