The emergency maintenance related to the latest Fierce Battle Area [London] has been completed. All eligible players have received a compensation of 1,500 Dimensional Crystals and 8 Stamina Jellies. Players who exploited the issue are temporarily restricted from logging in while the extra rewards obtained through the bug are being rolled back.
Official Website Announcement Quote
Updated 2025-11-06 00:00 UTC+08:00
Maintenance has been completed at the time listed above.
We sincerely apologize for the prolonged maintenance and the inconvenience caused by the issue in Fierce Battle Area.
Below is a report detailing the nature of the issue and the measures we have taken.
Issue Details
- An issue occurred starting 2025-11-05 11:00 UTC+08:00 in which mission rewards and clear rewards for Fierce Battle Area (Permanent) [London] and [Tachikawa] could be obtained multiple times under specific conditions.
- As a result of the issue, players were able to obtain Dimensional Crystals (Free), Credits, Proofs of Valor, Emblems of Defense, and various items purchased with these currencies beyond the intended amount.
Measures Taken
Prioritizing fairness and data restoration for all players, we have taken the following actions:
▽Dimensional Crystals (Free)
- All Dimensional Crystals (Free) acquired beyond the intended amount have been recalled.
- Players whose Dimensional Crystals (Free) balance fell below 0 after the recall have been temporarily restricted from logging in to allow for more accurate recall and data restoration. Details on login restrictions will follow below.
▽Credits and Proofs of Valor
- Credits and Proofs of Valor acquired beyond the intended amount have been recalled. This adjustment will not result in a negative balance.
- To ensure fairness, we will incrementally distribute the maximum amount of Credits and Proofs of Valor that could not be recalled to all players.
However, for players from whom the items could not be fully recalled, the amount that was not recalled will be subtracted from this distribution.
▽Emblems of Defense
- Emblems of Defense acquired beyond the intended amount have been recalled. This adjustment will not result in a negative balance.
- To ensure fairness, we will incrementally distribute a set amount of Emblems of Defense to all players.
However, for players from whom the items could not be fully recalled, the amount that was not recalled will be subtracted from this distribution.
- Additionally, players whose Emblems of Defense balance fell below 0 after the recall have been temporarily restricted from logging in to allow for more accurate recall and data restoration.
The exact amount of each item to be distributed can be found at the end of this announcement.
Login Restrictions
- As a result of the item recall, players whose Dimensional Crystals (Free) or Emblems of Defense balance fell below 0, and for whom immediate restoration is difficult, have been temporarily restricted from logging in. In addition to the restoration measures above, we will individually perform a detailed restoration listed below.
We will lift the login restrictions for these accounts incrementally as their restoration is completed. We ask for your continued patience.
▽Gacha
- All characters, weapons, Talent Shards, Encounter Stones, THE GAME Gacha Medals, and Pickup Gacha Medals obtained from Gacha pulls using the Dimensional Crystals (Free) acquired from this issue will be recalled.

▽Immediate Distribution

- Stamina Jelly x8
▽Sequential Distribution
- Credit x756,670

Additionally, for players who were unable to claim their Continuous Supply Drops due to the prolonged maintenance, we will distribute the uncollected Dimensional Crystals (Free) at a later date.
Once again, we sincerely apologize for the considerable inconvenience we have caused our players.
We will work to prevent any recurrence of this issue to ensure all players can enjoy the game safely.
