Hello, Chasers!

Last month, KurtzPel had an international server merge to improve matchmaking and provide ample opportunity for players to interact with a bigger community. Players are now able to communicate and play with players from across the globe.

In addition to the recent server merge, we are planning on merging with the Korean server currently published by NEXON. Through the server merge, we hope players can enjoy the game and meet even more players from various communities. The server merge is currently scheduled to be on UTC+0 August 3rd, 2022 (Wed).

Just like the previous server merge, the new server merge with the Korean server will allow global players to meet Korean players in Eltheca, share the Trading Post, and will be matched in PVP/PVE, while retaining the quality of gameplay.

For more details regarding the server merge with the Korean server, please check out the announcements at a later date.

Thank you.
