Changes in the June 2023 Update Schedule





Dear CEOs,
This is Kim Hyun Soo, the Head PD of CounterSide.

Firstly, we are sincerely sorry to ask for your understanding regarding the June 2023 Preview which was announced previously.

On the June update, we scheduled to hold a collaboration and add a new awakened employee. However, this collaboration has been postponed indefinitely, so the original plan for June 2023 could not be followed.

Preview is one way of making promises to our CEOs, and we deeply apologize for not being able to keep up with the promise and the expectation.

We are well aware that the disappointment of our CEOs due to sudden changes in update content and this will not be resolved with anything, but we have prepared a small compensation.

▣ Compensation
- Quartz x 1,000

- Available Period :
- June 7, 2023 (Wed) ~ June 14, 2023 (Wed) 23:59 (UTC+9)
- June 7, 2023 (Wed) ~ June 14, 2023 (Wed) 09:59 (UTC-5)

We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Thank you.
