[h2]The First Major Update Commemorative Sale is Now On!![/h2]



[h2]Introducing new cards[/h2]


The sixth set of additional cards for "Far East Territory" will be "Mining City" and "Cavalry."

[h3]『Mining City』[/h3]
This card makes its appearance with almost no changes from the previous version.
One point of improvement is that the negative succession points have been reduced from 4 to 2. However, after nominating a princess, if you play this card, it will be forcibly set to your domain, making it tricky to use post-establishment.
That said, since it functions as a domain where you can hold onto a 4-cost card, aggressively setting it up can still be effective depending on the situation.

[h3]『Cavalry』[/h3]
This is a new card from the second edition of "Far East Territory."
In addition to its versatile effect of 1 Link, 1 Coin, and 1 Draw, it has a powerful ability to discard up to 2 useful cards from your opponent's deck.
"Cavalry" becomes even more menacing when combined with attack cards that interfere with your opponent’s hand, so extra caution is necessary in setups where there are attack cards in play besides "Cavalry.

[h2]Regarding Future Updates[/h2]
Since the implementation of "Ranked Matches," [h3]around 5,000 matches[/h3] have been completed, with many players participating.
Along with this, we have received numerous valuable opinions, which have been extremely helpful.
Please continue to share your feedback with us. Additionally, the results of these matches are being collected as data, and this information will also be used to inform further development.

[h3]Regarding Concept Cards[/h3]
n weeks without new card implementations, we have been introducing new supplies, including "Concept Cards," but we will be discontinuing that for now.
However, rest assured that the implementation of new supplies will continue as usual.

[h3]Regarding the Match Record Site[/h3]
We have received inquiries about the match record site that was well received for "HEART of CROWN PC," and we are currently considering it.

[h3]Regarding Multilingual Support[/h3]
Regarding support for languages other than Japanese and English, we plan to introduce multiple language options, starting with Chinese and Korean. We will provide updates as more details are finalized, so please stay tuned for further announcements.
