Hello.
This is the
First of all, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and concern this change may cause.
To stabilize our servers, we have had to change our Steam Market trading policy, and some items will be affected in the process.
Let us start with the most important information.
Please withdraw all items currently listed in the "Steam Market," "Steam Inventory," and "Trade Ship" before the deadline below.
· Deadline:
-June 1, 2026, 5:00 AM (PDT, San Francisco)
-June 1, 2026, 9:00 PM (KST, Seoul)
-June 1, 2026, 1:00 PM (BST, London)
· Please be sure to move your items into your "Inventory" or "Stash" before the update.
· If items that will be removed in this update remain in the "Steam Market," "Steam Inventory," or "Trade Ship," we are sorry to say that they cannot be recovered.
-All Uncommon, Common, and Rare grade equipment
-Equipment items of specific levels (all equipment at Lv. 25, 35, 45, 55, 60, 70, 75, 85, and 90)
-Type B equipment items (*Item type can be identified by the A/B suffix added after the item name when listed on Steam.)
We know this is a hassle, but we sincerely ask that you withdraw your items within the deadline.
Since launch, player activity and item volume have far exceeded our expectations, pushing the load on Steam's servers to its limit.
Steam has confirmed that, because we failed to properly meet their server usage guidelines, the game was sending excessive server requests and causing problems for Steam's servers.
As a result, Steam has asked us to reduce the number of items to meet their guidelines, and in order to keep the service running stably, we must reduce the variety of items traded on the Market.
We want to assure you first that this is an unavoidable technical decision made so that everyone can continue to enjoy the game.
We sincerely apologize for developing the game without sufficient technical review and bringing about this situation.
*Scheduled Update Time
-June 1, 2026, 5:00 AM (PDT, San Francisco)
-June 1, 2026, 9:00 PM (KST, Seoul)
-June 1, 2026, 1:00 PM (BST, London)
· Market trading will be available only from Cube Level 10 and above.
· Only items of Legendary grade or higher will be tradable on the Market.
*Items held in your Inventory or Stash: You can continue to equip and use them as before.
However, while equipment of certain levels can still be used in the game, it can no longer be obtained, synthesized, or traded on the Market going forward.
(all equipment at Lv. 25, 35, 45, 55, 60, 70, 75, 85, and 90)
· If items that will be removed in this update remain in the "Steam Market," "Steam Inventory," or "Trade Ship," we are sorry to say that they cannot be recovered.
-All Uncommon, Common, and Rare grade equipment
-Equipment items of specific levels (all equipment at Lv. 25, 35, 45, 55, 60, 70, 75, 85, and 90)
-Type B equipment items (*Item type can be identified by the A/B suffix added after the item name when listed on Steam.)
-Boxes: Please open all of your boxes and collect the items before the update. Boxes obtained in certain ranges will no longer drop items, except for Act Boss boxes.
(boxes obtained in region levels 25–29, 35–39, 45–49, 55–59, 60–64, 70–79, and 85–95)
The items excluded from trading were chosen mainly from higher grades and higher levels, so that the impact on players who have just started is kept to a minimum.
We offer our sincere apologies to those who have spent a long time collecting high-grade items.
Given everything that has happened over the past few days, we have concluded that a simple grant of in-game currency would not be enough to make up for it.
As compensation, we would like to give you, free of charge, the "6 Character Costumes" that we had been preparing as paid DLC.
We will announce the specific method and timing of distribution in a follow-up notice.
(*However, since the costume system is still in development, we expect distribution to be possible in late June.)
For server stability, box generation time may remain as it currently is for the time being.
We are discussing with Steam whether it can be returned to its previous speed after we reduce the item count, and we will provide further information later.
Once again, we sincerely apologize for the great disappointment this has caused.
As soon as the servers are stabilized, we will do our utmost to come back with something better.
We will continue to share updates on our progress through Discord and in-game.
Thank you.
