Calling all Closers,

We heard you loud and clear. As of July 3, we’ll remove the fatigue system from the NA and EU versions of Closers. We’ve been watching, observing, and listening to all of your comments in regard to this system. It became obvious the system wasn’t good and took away the fun for a majority of players in our regions. Naddic is a very player focused developer and aligns with our En Masse mission to create great Player Experiences. So, we are very happy to announce the implementation of this change in the next update!

—Cochese

• Most of the main dungeons already have their own entrance restrictions. Naddic previously removed fatigue in Japan and gained experience in ensuring the economy remains healthy. We will also continuously monitor for any needed changes.

• We are still finalizing this. We are leaning towards converting all existing pots into credits via the Matter Mixer. Before we can finalize, we’re doing some research into the economy of fatigue pots and the balance of converting. For now, I would not recommend stock piling these, as they will not give an advantage going forward.

• We will replace these with another type of consumable and update our DLC packs with the update.

• Nothing will be changed for now. We will continue to monitor and adjust to protect the economy, as needed.

• If you haven’t used them yet, you will be able to convert these when the update arrives. We are also considering a reward to couple with this big change for all players – stay tuned!

• Absolutely! Naddic has already started on these replacements and all pots will be gone with the update.

• We will continue monitoring this and it’s a big topic for all regions. We will update as we have more to share here.

You can now send gifts straight from the EMP Store to other Closers players!

Just drop by the store, pick out what you want to give, verify the recipient, and check out. You can send up to five gifts each day—gifting resets at 6 a.m. server time.

Plus, we’ve put several new items in the EMP Store for you to purchase for your friends or just keep for yourself:

• Mini Sylvi pet
• Harpy’s Carol (NPC) costume pack
• Harpy’s UNION Security Guard package
• Punisher Irina costume bundle containing the Punisher Irina pet

But you don’t have to limit yourself to these; most everything in the EMP Store can now be purchased for other players. Head over to the store and give gifting a go today!
