HEART of CROWN Online News

Greetings to all the influential figures of the empire!

[h3]Here is the server availability schedule for May.[/h3]


We will continue to keep the servers open until May 12 (Sunday), but from May 13 onward, due to update operations, we will operate under a schedule where the servers are closed from Monday to Thursday and open from Friday to Sunday.
＊The servers will shut down at 1 PM (JST) on Mondays [4 AM(UTC) on Mondays] and will reopen at midnight (JST) on Fridays [3 PM(UTC) on Thursdays].

During Steam's seasonal sales or around major updates mentioned in our roadmap, we will extend the open periods. Additionally, depending on the progress of server improvements, we plan to gradually extend these periods and intend to keep the servers open continuously after the implementation of ranked matches.

We apologize for any inconvenience during this time and appreciate your cooperation.

[h3]Revision Details[/h3]

・We have made it possible to change the BGM/SE volume during a match via the menu icon in the top right corner.
・When recalling a keep card, if the number of direct control cards is below a certain value, you can return it to your hand by clicking on the card.
・We have made improvements to make it clearer when acquiring cards from the market during resolution of effects.
・When the full log is opened, it now prioritizes displaying the most recent logs.
・Other minor improvements have been made to enhance playability.

[h3]Regarding Future Server Availability Schedule[/h3]

Regarding the currently available battle servers, we may need to close them for a few days in the near future. We will announce the server availability schedule for May on May 1st. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Greetings to all the influential figures of the empire!

Thank you for your patience.
The early access version of "HEART of CROWN Online" is now available for sale!

In addition to the "Room Match" released in the March demo version, the "Quick Match," which allows you to easily play against anyone, is finally being unlocked. The number of supplies has also significantly increased, making HEART of CROWN even more enjoyable. Please look forward to it!

From the start of early access sales, we aim to release the official version within approximately one year! We plan to incorporate many more contents, so please take a look at the roadmap.



As our first milestone, we plan to enhance the presentation by June 2024, starting with adding effects and animations for the princesses.
For CPU battles, we will add even more challenging difficulty levels, and implement a feature that allows you to choose and play with your favorite supplies from those available. Regarding the expansion of music and sound effects, this will include the background music for each princess that was popular in the previous game.

In Q3 2024, we will perform our first major update. The highlight of this update is the implementation of ranked matches, where you can earn titles by defeating rivals, similar to the previous game. The highest title you can achieve is "Archduke."
Additionally, "HEART of CROWN Online" will adopt a seasonal system where scores are reset every 2 to 3 months.
In line with this, we will implement daily quests that allow players to earn in-game currency and items by completing specific tasks each day.

In the second major update in Q4 2024, we will introduce a new single-player mode that is different from the CPU battles. Accompanying this, we will also implement voices for key characters, starting with the princesses!
In the shop, you will be able to use in-game currency and items to purchase titles and emotes. These can be used to customize your profile, which will be reflected in your matches.
I won't say much now about the accession-only graphics... stay tuned!

※Minor UI updates and additional cards will be implemented and updated as needed, so they are not included in the roadmap. More details will be added when we publish a more detailed roadmap in the future.


We aim to make "HEART of CROWN Online" even better by incorporating your feedback. Please feel free to join our official Discord and share your opinions and thoughts. We also plan to provide a dedicated Discord for matches and tournaments. We will make a separate announcement once it is ready.

Thank you for your continued support of "HEART of CROWN Online"!
