Since the New Year event shows that Hinomoto is the DL version of Japan, perhaps we can expect one event to have an event that has characters from the DL version of Russia, China or even Australia for example.

Since Ieyasu's is primarily Shadow elemental, have their own dragon and their leader is named after a famed shogun from the Feudal Era of Japan, the next event will have something similar, with a Light-theme raid/facility event, and with the leader of that group being Nobunaga.

Since they've shown they'll make heroes and even dragons out of characters from the previous Cygames games, what's to say they won't do one of the stories involving a corrupted Jeanne d'Arc to give her a Shadow version as well as a bit of an EnemyMine situation between the heroes and TheEmpire to save her soul?

Since her songs provide most of the music in the game, she would eventually be released as a character in an event, either pulled from the gatcha or having to be leveled up in friendship like in raid events. She'd also provide her own voice in the Japanese version.

!The sixth Greatwyrm
In the story, only five have been shown so far, with the sixth's identity currently unrevealed.
* As mentioned above, it ''could'' be Bahamut but given Cygames' incredibly preferential treatment towards it in other works, them deciding to off it ''offscreen'' seems unlikely.
** Alternatively, a weakened version similar to Proto Bahamut from ''GBF'' could be feasible.
* Elysium, since it is the one dragon of great import in the story currently unaccounted for

* A ''{{VideoGame/Shadowverse}}'' or ''VideoGame/GranblueFantasy'' direct collab (as in, outside of Cygames' usual mascot characters who show up in all their works) isn't out of the question, though ''Granblue'' may be a slightly weirder proposition since it isn't ''officially'' available outside on Japan. It also depends on how much Nintendo wants to promote games outside of the Nintendo ecosystem.

[[spoiler:It seems highly probable that the Other is the demon, Morsayati, summoned into the First Binding War, or at least a fragment of its power that escaped through the seal. According to the first video of The History of Alberia, the humans were desperate enough to call upon a powerful demon from another realm to defeat the dragons. The Other is intent on eliminating dragons, keeping with the initial intent of its purpose of being called into the world. At least, that's what it claims through its guise as Empress Zethia. The second video then reveals the origins of the Dyrenell Empire, formed by people that wanted to return to their advanced civilization and no longer live in harmony with dragons to the point that they sought to bring Morsayati back. The first thing that the Other does at the first opportunity of possessing Aurelius? Turn Alberia into the new Dyrenell Empire. And apparently, it has grown wise with age as it seized the opportunity to take over the Auspex to prevent itself from being purged unlike the first time when Ilia and Elysium pacted together to seal the demon away.Additionally in the prologue, when confronting the party for Zethia and the Sacred Shard, Zethia's prayer allowed the Prince to briefly transform into Elysium, to which the possessed Aurelius regarded with disdainful familiarity.]]

His resemblance to Sandalphon from ''VideoGame/GranblueFantasy'' isn't a coincidence.

!Concerning Bahamut
In a game about dragons, it's almost axiomatic that Cygames' Big Guy is gonna show up sooner or later, but he is ''pointedly'' absent from the initial series lore and introductions. There's a few possibilities:
* He's going to be introduced as an incredibly powerful being who is above most of the conflicts seen to date - to dragons what dragons often are to humans. Contacting him could be a major crux of the finale of the first arc.
* Bahamut was involved in the ''instigation'' of the original conflict that became the first Sealing War. As such, his name has been blotted from history and his re-introduction into world affairs will be a big deal that helps convince others to rally behind the Prince.
