Masters of the Book,

We would like to inform you in advance that the “Sign up via your X Account” and “Connect X account to an existing account" features will be terminated.

This is to ensure that Masters of the Book who have already made use of this feature will get a heads up on what changes are happening soon.

Please refer to the details below if you use an X account to sign into the game.

- August 01, 2024 

- Signing up using your X account will no longer be possible.
- Connecting/Linking your existing ASTRA: Knights of Veda game account to an X account will no longer be possible.

- After 08/01 you will still be able to access the game normally by logging in to your X account.
- After 08/01 once you connect another account (eg. Google, Apple, etc.) to an existing account that previously only had X connected to it, the account connection to X will be automatically removed.

We hope that by issuing this notice, our Masters of the Book will have the required time and information to make any necessary changes to their account in advance.

We will inform you again about the application details on August 1 when the new X account registration and account connection termination are effective.

Thank you.
