It is going to be a lot easier to unlock each Tales of Luminaria episode after the next update. Bandai Namco announced the 1.0.9 patch is on the way. Once it arrives, it will be less work to access every character. All someone will need to do is go through Leo Fourcade’s adventures.
The new plateau people will need to reach is Leo Episode 1 Chapter 2 to unlock Tales of Luminaria characters. Once you do, you’ll unlock the first episode of every character released so far. That means in addition to Alexandra, August, and Celia, you’ll get to start Ana-Maria, Edouard, Falk, Hugo, Lisette, Maxime, Raoul, and Yelsey’s stories.
Tales of Luminaria tells a story from multiple sides. To help people out, Bandai Namco offered a suggested order for characters. However, aside from playing part of Leo’s story first, there is no mandatory order.
Starting from ver.1.0.9, all episodes that have already been released will unlock when you clear Leo ep.1 chapter 2.
For those who are wondering which one to start off with, we've prepared a "recommended order of episode play"✨#TalesOfLuminaria pic.twitter.com/4tmO5V6cTN

This is the second time Bandai Namco adjusted the Tales of Luminaria episode unlock requirements. At launch, you had to clear the fourth chapter of Leo’s first episode to unlock the first episodes for Alexandra, August, and Celia. The 1.0.6 update lowered the requirement to finishing Leo episode one, chapter two.
Tales of Luminaria is available on Android and Apple iOS devices.
