[h2]Notice - Discontinuation of Fate Episode[/h2]
Hello everyone, this is Hyung-Ju Lee from AlFine.
Currently, the Fate episode is no longer viewable and will no longer be developed within Chrono Ark.
This is because the content of the story has changed from our original plan.
At the time when we decided to develop the Fate episode, we were planning to end the main story of Chrono Ark without explaining anything and reveal the details later in the Fate episode. However, much of the story that was planned to be in the Fate episode has already been added to the main story, so the Fate episode has no longer become vital to understanding the story.
Although the Fate episode was removed from the game, the setting or overall flow of the story have not changed.

However, we are still willing to develop the Fate episode as a standalone game.
Mystery, Closed Circle, Death Game, Detective, Virtual Reality.
The Fate episode was planned to be a very interesting story featuring unusual murder cases, ingenious tricks, and the paths that the Investigators took in the past.
However, since the need for the Fate episode has been diminished in the current story of Chrono Ark, it will have to wait until the next opportunity.

Thank you for your attention.
