Hello, imcGAMES here.
First of all, we would like to show our utmost gratitude to all of you who have been eagerly waiting for the Granado Espada for SEA(GE for SEA from hereon after) launch. As we have finalized our launch schedule, we would like to make a few announcements in a Q&A type fashion regarding the launch schedule and the Founder’s Pack DLC products.
Before moving on the Q&A, please take note of the GE for SEA Launch Roadmap below.
▶ Pre-download & Founder’s Pack Sale: Oct. 16th, 2017
▶ Founder's Server Open: Oct. 25th, 2017
▶ Free-to-play: Nov. 1st, 2017
[GE for SEA Launch Roadmap]
Q. What is the launch schedule like?
A. The GE for SEA service will kick off by opening our Founder’s servers on October 25th, 2017 offering exclusive access to 'Founder’s Pack DLC’ purchasers. The servers will allow access to everyone (Free-to-play) exactly one week later on November 1st, 2017.
Also, pre-downloading the game client and 'Founder's Pack DLC' products will be available on the Steam Store from October 16th, 2017. However, please note that you will not be able to access the servers before October 25th, 2017 even if you pre-download the game client.
Q. What are the plans like regarding the update schedule post-launch?
A. We are planning on having 1 major content update per month where 1~2 new characters will be added to the game.
Please refer to the image below to have a peek at what our plans are like from November 1st, 2017 (Free-to-play transition) to the end of the year. However, we ask for your understanding in case there is some deviation from this plan due to unforeseen circumstances.
Q. Does the Granado Espada for SEA service on Steam have any relation to the previous Granado Espada service that had been published in Singapore? If so, will the previous game data be preserved?
A. Unfortunately no, data will not be preserved/maintained from the previous service that had been published in Singapore as there is almost no relation between the two services.
We, imcGAMES, are able to provide service to the Singapore region as the previous service had ended in April 2017. However, this does not mean that we will be maintaining the previous server's game data.
However, we are planning on providing massive benefits to players from the previous Singapore servers that have invested a lot of time or money and will be providing related information to those players separately.
Q. How do you access the Founder’s Servers?
A. Players that have purchased ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ products will be able to access the Founder’s Server from October 25th, 2017 and create their families & characters.
As mentioned before, please note that you will only be able to pre-download the game client but not be able to access the servers before October 25th, 2017 even if you have purchased a ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ product.
Q. What will happen to the game data from the Founder’s Server after the game transitions to Free-to-play on November 1st, 2017?
A. All data from the Exclusive Access period offered to ‘Founder's Pack DLC’ purchasers will be maintained even when the game becomes totally Free-to-Play. Players that join the game after November 1st, 2017 will be joining the existing servers. In other words, the Founder’s Servers will become normal GE for SEA servers allowing everyone to enjoy the game together.
Q. What is a ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ product?
A. The 'Founder's Pack' is a DLC product that will be available on the Steam Store from October 16th, 2017. Its main benefit will be ‘7 days of Exclusive Access’ which will allow you to gain a head-start.
It will be available on the Steam Store in three variants; 'Light', 'Medium' & 'Premium'.
Q. What benefits will I be able to gain from the ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ product?
As mentioned above, the main benefit will be ‘7 days of Exclusive Access’ to the servers. The main components of all three products are as follows.
- 7 Days of exclusive early access to the game
- The First Pioneer Medal (Increase ATK +3%, +1 to all Abilities)
- iCash (Premium currency that allows you to purchase in-game premium items)
- Numerous Enchantchip Veteran & Expert for Event
- and much more! (Family training support items etc)
You will be able to check the detailed contents of each product from the image below.
Q. Is there anything else to know about ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ product purchases?
A. You will only be able to purchase a maximum of one ‘Founder’s Pack’ variant per account. For instance, you will be able to purchase one Light, Medium, Premium product if you wish to do so, but you will not be able to purchase two Light products. Also, please note that none of the products are tradable.
The ‘Exclusive Access’ authority will be automatically granted to your account if you have ownership of the product.
All other ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ product benefits must be obtained in-game from the “Leonardo Expreso NPC” or the “Get Cash Item” UI. Please make sure to check the NPC or UI to gain your benefits!
We will be making additional announcements regarding the sale of 'Founder's Pack DLC' products on the Steam Store Page, so please keep a close eye on our Official Website!
Q. When will the ‘Founder’s Pack DLC’ products be taken off from the Steam Store?
A. The schedule has not yet been finalized, but we will be making a separate announcement at least 2 weeks prior to taking the products from the Steam Store.
Thank you.
