ELOA -
We regret to inform you that ELOA will no longer be available from mid-October, 2016.
Since official launch, we have been working hard to build a strong community and various events. Unfortunately, we have come to a difficult decision to end this long journey we have enjoyed and cherished together. We understand that this will disappoint many of our players.
ASTA -
This last year has been a busy and eventful one for ASTA, for you as a community and for us as a team working on it. Over a year ago, we were excited to announce that we would be bringing ASTA: The War of Tears and Winds to Western audiences. The game had much potential in our eyes, and your reactions during the IBT served to boost those feelings. (Hello, ASTA failed very fast even in Korea)
Many of you followed us all the way from IBT, to OBT, to multiple expansions, and your support made us believe we could succeed. Sadly, we were wrong. The players we have are awesome, and any company would be happy to have such a dedicated community, but sadly the recent player numbers are not sufficient for us to be able to continue the service. So, after discussions with Polygon Games, we have agreed that the game servers will close on the 4th of October.
