8. Regarding the Taima-Five VR Issue
After the maintenance on May 7th, 2024, it was confirmed that an error occurred when clearing Steps 280 or higher in Taima-Five VR, further progress was impossible. As a temporary measure, through this update, the highest playable step in Taima-Five VR will be set to Step 280. This issue will be resolved during the maintenance on June 4th, 2024.
We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
9. Suspension of cheating users
To create a healthy gaming environment, we have imposed disciplinary measures on accounts found to be cheating in the game. The following 10 accounts have been suspended due to disciplinary measures.
To protect the users who play the game fairly, GREMORY GAMES will continue to respond strictly to any unfair advantages acquired through improper means and actions.
We have pondered how to newly express the diverse and attractive firearms showcased in AVA Global.
After much deliberation, we developed a system where characters can use three weapons simultaneously, demonstrating powerful firepower. We named this the "Tactical Suit."
Now, in New Mode - Busters, you can experience the thrill of subduing enemies through active combat utilizing various weapons.
Furthermore, characters will have roles as "Units" when combined with exclusive weapons. Each unit has unique characteristics and shows growth and increased strength as the game progresses.
We hope you discover new enjoyment by surviving until the end on the battlefield of Busters.
We will continually strive to meet your passionate requests. *Please note that everything we are sharing today along with any mentioned information may be subject to change
Although you can find a clue from the upper image, we share the sneak peeks of the new mode today!

Participate in voting
We will conduct two rounds of player voting, with each owner voting to determine the Live2D skin of Lolis in VPet Simulator, and the final Live2D skin of Lolis as a paid DLC will be launched. The detailed voting rules are as follows
The voting is divided into two rounds. In the first round of preliminary voting, players select three themes from the Lolis Live2D skins of ten themes, and then the artist creates original artwork based on the players' votes. Afterwards, the second round of final voting takes place, selecting one of the three artworks as the Lolis Live2D skin for production.
The voting process involves selecting three candidates from ten, with no duplicate choices allowed. The first round of pre-voting will take place from May 21st to June 6th
New Items 24 new items added to yard sales, dumpsters and magnet fishing.
