Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross keeps its roster fresh by running limited-time collaborations with popular anime, games, and even K-pop acts. Each crossover drops a set of guest heroes you can only pull during the event window, and it usually pairs them with World Quests and special Event Boss Battles that hand out rewards you cannot get anywhere else.
Quick answer: Collab units are time-limited. If a crossover is live, pull the heroes and clear its World Quest and boss fights before it ends, because those units and rewards leave the pool when the event closes.

How Grand Cross collab events work
Every collaboration is a temporary event, not a permanent addition. Guest heroes arrive through banners and event shops, and once the crossover ends they stop being available to summon. That is why players treat each one as a window to grab characters they may not see again.
Alongside the units, most collabs bring their own fights. A World Quest usually retells part of the guest series, while an Event Boss Battle or Death Match pits you against a signature villain from that franchise. Clearing those stages is how you farm the exclusive rewards tied to the event.
TenSura was the very first collaboration to run in Grand Cross, which set the template for everything that followed. Some crossovers have even returned for repeat rounds, such as The Rising of the Shield Hero coming back for its second and third seasons and Solo Leveling returning for a second run.

A few units broke from the usual anime and game theme. The MAVE: crossover added ZENA from the virtual K-pop group MAVE: as Blue Zena during the game’s fourth anniversary, and she was handed out free of charge alongside a diamond banner.

Is a new collab confirmed?
No official next collaboration is currently confirmed. Grand Cross adds crossovers on its own schedule rather than a fixed calendar, so the safest move is to check the in-game notices and official channels for a fresh announcement rather than relying on rumors.
Tip: When a crossover does go live, prioritize the units and rewards you actually want early in the run. Collab heroes and their event shops close with the event, and there is no guarantee a specific character returns in a later round.
Collab events remain one of the clearest reasons to keep an eye on Grand Cross between story updates. They bring recognizable guest heroes, one-off boss fights, and rewards that vanish once the window shuts, so timing your pulls and boss clears while a crossover is active is the whole game.
