[Announcement] Additional Guidance on the Long-Term Inactive Account Policy

Hello, Heroes of Bermesiah!
Prevoiusly on October 10, we announced through an official announcement that the ‘Long-Term Inactive Account Policy’ will be added to the End User License Agreement (EULA) to ensure smooth service provision and game operation.

We have received concerns from many players that their accounts may be deleted under the new policy if they did not log in for a long time.
This policy is added so that we could conduct In-Game Name Reset Events and we have no intent to manage inactive accounts or delete them.
We apologize for the lack of explanation on the new policy.

In order to alleviate the misunderstandings and make the ‘Long-Term Inactive Account Policy’ easier to understand, the details of the policy have been revised as follows.
1) Before: Account Information & Account In-Game Name Deletion
2) After: Account In-Game Name Reset

■ Applied Date: November 12, 2025 (Wed)

■ Long-Term Inactive Account Policy
• For the purpose of service improvement and smooth game operation, the company may reset account in-game name for accounts that have been inactive for 365 days or more from the date of last game access (hereinafter referred to as “Long-Term Inactive Accounts”).
• In the event that In-Game Name within a Long-Term Inactive Account is to be reset, the company will provide prior notice of the reset schedule and details through an official announcement.
• With the new Long-Term Inactive Account Policy, In-Game Name that has been Reset cannot be restored.

■ Additional Information
- Upon launching the game after the Policy takes effect in November 12, 2025, a new 'EULA Agreement Window' may pop up even if you have already agreed to the base EULA. You must agree to the newest EULA in the pop-up window to continue playing the game.


[FAQ Related to New Policy] Q1. Do you have to agree to the new EULA? What happens if you don't agree to it?
A1. Agree to the EULA to enjoy GrandChase Classic as intended. Not agreeing to it may prevent you from downloading, installing, and playing the game and the EULA will also no longer protect your gameplay.

Q2. Will the Account In-Game Name be reset if I fail to log in for 365 days?
A2. It will not be reset automatically. If the reset happens, there will be an announcement in advance to notify all players.

Q3. How do I reactivate my account if the reset announcement is made?
A3. When the reset announcement is made, we will notify all players of the time period of inactivity that flags the account as inactive. There will also be a time period for players to reactivate their account.
Even if the account was flagged as inactive prior to the announcement, players who log in 1 time within the time period will be able to remove the flag and reactivate their accounts.
Players do not have to do any additional measures other than just logging in.


Please check the revised content and FAQ on the updated Long-Term Inactive Account Policy.

Thank You.

[Announcement] October 17th Developer's Notes



Hello, Heroes of Bermesiah!
Following the release of Iris, various data such as dungeon statistics, character usage rates, and survey results have been analyzed
in preparation for updates that will allow players to continue fostering affection for their characters.

This notice aims to share the general direction of the upcoming balance update in advance.
The first round of balance adjustments is scheduled for October 22nd, with additional updates to be implemented sequentially through future patches.
In addition to balance changes, new systems, dungeons, and other diverse updates are also being prepared for the latter half of this year.

Below are the details of the balance patch scheduled for October 22nd.

■ Counter Attack Improvements for 4th Bar and Awakening Special Skills
4th Bar and Awakening Special Skills are designed to consume a significant amount of resources in order to deliver powerful attacks during crucial moments.
However, situations have arisen in which monsters evade attacks through counter attacks when struck.
To avoid counter attacks, certain skill types have become disproportionately favored, resulting in a lack of variety in skill concepts.
To address this, improvements will be made so that monsters in dungeons do not perform counter attacks or teleportation when struck by these skills.

■ Reduction of Pre-Delay for 3rd Bar Special Skills
The time between activation and the first hit of an Special Skill is referred to as the “preparation time.”
This duration varies depending on each skill’s concept.
However, because 3rd Bar Special Skills significantly influence overall damage output, the difference in preparation time has had a considerable impact on balance.
To resolve this, adjustments will be made to the time-stop effect applied when using 3rd Bar Special Skills, reducing the disparity in time until the first strike occurs.

In addition to the balance updates mentioned above, further improvements such as damage adjustments and structural refinements for Special Skills will also be implemented. Detailed information will be provided in future update announcements.
The following are additional balance improvements planned for upcoming patches:

■ Fix for Forced Right-Facing Direction After Using Certain Special Skills
In some cases, using certain Special Skills forces the character to face right. As a result, Pet Skills may activate in unintended directions when used during these skills. This issue will be corrected to ensure Pet Skills activate as intended.

■ Character Movement and Control Improvements
After previous adjustments to character controls, instances were identified where characters did not respond as intended, leading to a less satisfactory control experience.
Overall responsiveness and precision will be improved to ensure accurate input and smoother control.

■ Structural Improvements for Certain Characters’ Special Skills and Command Systems
Based on analyses of play rates, endgame participation data, and survey feedback, several characters with lower overall performance have been identified.
Since minor numerical adjustments alone are insufficient to improve their effectiveness, structural improvements will be made to enhance their usability.

The development team will continue to work diligently to ensure that GrandChase remains an enjoyable and enduring game for all players.
Thank you.
