​

Hello, this is Director Lee Jong-joo.

The holiday season has just come to an end here in Korea. I hope you were able to enjoy a restful and meaningful break.

I’d like to share some details about our upcoming update, as well as major development plans currently in progress for May.

New Legendary Hero

First, I’m pleased to announce that a new Legendary Hero will be introduced in mid-May.

The clues: 1 p.m. in the army, star, teleport, Christmas, and a beautiful woman.

We hope you enjoy trying to guess who the hero might be based on these hints.

Family Month Events

In celebration of May, known in Korea as Family Month, we are preparing several special events to thank all of you for your continued love and support.

​

Daily Pickup Event

For the Daily Pickup Event, a total of six heroes will be featured: Lucias, Filly, Goose, Joanna, Altos, and Alfred.

I hope this will be a great opportunity to explore the charm of each hero and perhaps discover a new favorite.

Episodes: Abyss 3-stage Event

We’re also launching a three-stage event titled Episodes: Infinite Abyss.

This event will accompany the introduction of the new Legendary Hero, and it will give you the chance to earn valuable rewards, including Garnets and Knowledge.

Double Rewards in <Book of Adventure>

Double reward benefits will also be applied to Book of Adventure.

Drop/Crafting Event

During your adventures, you’ll be able to collect Carnation. These can be exchanged for various useful rewards, so we hope you won’t miss out on the event.

<Infinite Abyss> Expansion

Now, regarding <Infinite Abyss>—previously, I mentioned that there were no plans for additional expansion. However, after reviewing gameplay data and the overall content flow, we’ve decided that now is the right time to move forward with an expansion.

<Infinite Abyss> is based on a rotational structure, and the average playtime has remained consistent. Taking that into account, we believe that expanding existing content, rather than introducing something entirely new, will better support ongoing gameplay balance and engagement.

As a result, <Gagharv Abyss> will be expanded to the 300th floor on May 15, and the Episodes Abyss—Destiny, Eternal, and Sea Abyss—will be expanded to the 300th floor on May 22. We hope this will offer more opportunities to explore diverse team compositions and develop new strategies.

​

Scenario and <Hero's Gallery> Update

I’d like to talk about the status of our scenario updates and Hero’s Gallery.

The next installment of Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch is currently facing a slight delay. There are multiple reasons, but the main one is the full renewal of A Cagesong of the Ocean. This renewal will cover all four chapters of the scenario and is more than a simple revision—it is a full-scale overhaul of the dialogue, direction, quest structure, and interactive elements. Essentially, we are rebuilding the content from the ground up to make it more immersive and cohesive. Voice recordings have already been completed, and we’re now preparing a wide range of content enhancements to take the experience to a new level.

We understand that many of you have been eagerly awaiting the continuation of Prophecy of the Moonlight Witch, and we truly appreciate your patience. We aim to release the update as early as June, though it may extend to July depending on development progress.

Regarding the absence of Hero’s Gallery content recently—we’d like to take a moment to explain. While we’ve consistently tried to release Hero’s Gallery stories with new hero releases, we’ve also heard feedback that the experience sometimes felt too formulaic. Internally, we also shared concerns that four short cutscenes were not enough to truly capture a hero’s narrative depth or emotional resonance. The lack of volume made it difficult to differentiate Hero’s Gallery from the main scenario in terms of impact and immersion.

As a result, we have shifted our focus to quality over quantity. The upcoming Legendary Hero’s Gallery will feature eight cutscenes—twice the usual number—and will deliver a deeper, more complete story. After the renewal of A Cagesong of the Ocean is complete, we also plan to restructure and enhance the Hero’s Gallery system to make it more meaningful and satisfying for players.

​

UI Improvements

UI improvements, including updates to combat UI and other quality-of-life enhancements, are also currently in progress. We will continue to refine and improve the user experience over time.

That concludes this week’s Developer Note. I hope you stay well until we meet again in the next update.

Sincerely,

Director Lee Jong-joo
