We will keep trying our best for GrandChase Classic.
Thank you.

We are no longer in active development.
Our team basically dissolved after we did not get enough funding (We were self-funded with our own private money).
We are working on other projects with different people in our free time (But the primary expertise for this game's game development is no longer with us so we need to discontinue it. Real life, harsh Covid19 conditions, and the loss of family members, and with self-funding we can no longer work on this game. It was our passion and dream project but it failed... We tried to deactivate the store page but this is not that easy so we put a warning on the page for now).

I post this to clarify our current state and to keep reminding you to purchase at your own risk (Since the game is not finished and will properly never receive any update).

If our private projects gain some money we may get back to this game again - and let it resurrect like a phoenix - but even from a marketing standpoint, we would be better off making a new game as a successor to this one. It is sad for all of us but there is no point in hoping to develop this in our free time (we need to make smaller games on our own).


best regards and also happy Christmas days,

To the Crown Mages,

This update features a rework to Hero Pack selection, sending stickers during Trials, updates to the Rank system, and the addition of Takeover Trial leaderboards.

Additionally, this update marks the 1 Year Anniversary of Astatos entering Early Access on Steam. Since launch over 6000 Crown Mages have joined the Trials, and we couldn’t be happier with all the feedback and support we’ve received over the past year.



Since launch we’ve released over 14 updates and 6 major versions— tweaking balance, gameplay, releasing new skins, and adding the most commonly requested features such as PvE and Playable Tutorials.

Unfortunately, Part 3 of the PvE update could not be completed in time for this occasion, but we’re still hard at work on it. We hope the changes featured in this update will create a fresh experience for players over the holiday season!



If you’re interested in supporting our work and getting a look at features and artwork in production, we really appreciate support on our Patreon. http://www.patreon.com/StudioKlondike

For the detailed list of changes implemented with Astatos v0.6, please read on below.

Hero Card Drafting: This new feature replaces the Hero Pack Preferences settings in Conquest and Takeover Trials.

Hero Card Drafting determines which additional Heroes show up in the Hero Summon. The drafting process begins in the room prior to the commencement of a Trial.



Players will be asked to BAN and PICK Hero Cards depending on the game mode. Banned Hero Cards cannot be picked by any player.

If you do not own a given Hero, you will borrow it from another player in the room. If nobody owns a given Hero, it will not be selectable. (Hero Cards you borrow and do not own will not display Hero Skins.)

We hope Hero Card Drafting will simplify the selection of Hero Cards, as well as open up new combinations and strategies as we prepare for additional Hero Packs to be added to the game.

Note: Hero Pack Selection remains in place for Training Trials. Additionally, the sound design for this feature is still a work in progress and may be changed in an upcoming patch.



Stickers: Communicate with your fellow Crown Mages using Stickers!



Stickers can be used while waiting in Rooms, during Multiplayer Trials, and on the Victory Screen. Look for the Sticker Button wherever you can send them.



Additional Stickers can also be purchased from the Store for Monera.

Note: the sound design for this feature is still a work in progress and may be changed in an upcoming patch.



Takeover Trial Leaderboard: The Rank menu has been expanded to include a Leaderboard allowing you to compare your Rank and ELO values against the top Crown Mages.

Along with this addition, a new Season will occur every 3 months. With Season I concluding at the end of December.

Upon the conclusion of the current Season, your Rank will be soft reset and the previous Season’s rankings will be finalised. Players within the top 100 will unlock a hidden Title each season.

The Takeover Leaderboard is accessible from: Main Menu > Trials > Takeover Trial > Ranking

• The UI design of the Takeover and Conquest Trials menus have been revised.
  
• The UI when playing on Makari-Hari’s Side during a Trial has been revised.
