Hello, this is PD Xenon.

With yesterday’s Valentine’s Day update, we introduced new costumes for three of Gran Saga Idle’s most beloved heroes.

Through various community channels, we could feel the overwhelming love and support from our Captains, and the entire development team is truly grateful.

As a small token of appreciation, we have prepared special Valentine’s-themed screensavers featuring the new costumes!

Today, I would like to share details about the upcoming March update and address some of the topics we’ve been meaning to discuss with you.

1. Diamond Usage in Summons

During the recent collaboration event, we received a lot of feedback expressing disappointment over the restriction on Diamond usage in summons.

We deeply value the feedback from our Captains, and moving forward, we will ensure that such inconveniences do not occur again in future updates.

2. Dragonkin Release Cycle Shortened

When we first introduced Dragonkin and prepared for Ismael’s launch, we initially announced a 6-month release cycle for new Dragonkin heroes.

However, we’ve noticed that Captains have shown immense interest in this unique class, 

and as multi-deck content like Server Defense, World Arena, and others continue to expand, 

the need for more team-building options has increased.

As a result, we have decided to reduce the Dragonkin release cycle from 6 months to 3 months (quarterly).

Why shorten the Dragonkin release cycle?

✔ Expands deck-building options for strategic content
✔ Supports new multi-deck gameplay modes
✔ Allows Captains to experience new Dragonkin heroes more frequently

We also recognize concerns about the summon burden of frequent releases.

To help mitigate this, we will continue to expand Diamond acquisition methods through contents such as but not limited to Tower of Ordeals and other events, 

ensuring that the balance between growth and summoning remains stable.

The next Dragonkin hero is set to launch in March and will be one of the three teased in our previous Developer Note.
Expect an entirely new Dragonkin hero with unique mechanics and powerful abilities—we’re excited for you to meet them!

3. Gran Weapons: New Heroes

In September’s Developer Note, we first introduced the idea of bringing Gran Weapons into Gran Saga Idle.
At the time, we stated our goal was to retain the essence of the original Gran Weapons while minimizing gameplay burdens.

That direction remains unchanged.

How will Gran Weapons be implemented?

✔ Gran Weapons will NOT be a separate summon system
✔ Instead, they will be introduced as individual playable heroes
✔ They will be integrated into the existing hero summon system

Currently, Gran Saga Idle already has a triple summon system (Heroes, Artifacts, Pets).

Adding a separate Gran Weapon summon system would increase complexity and resource strain, which we want to avoid.

Instead, we have chosen to release Gran Weapons as heroes to ensure a seamless and familiar summoning experience while keeping gameplay progression smooth.

4. Upcoming Updates (February & March Preview)

Now, let’s take a look at what’s coming in the next two months!

February Updates

✔ Special Hero Recruitment

• Includes Ismael and 6 other fan-favorite heroes in a limited summon banner.
• Unlike previous banners, this recruitment event will include a Hero Selection Chest as a milestone reward, making it easier to obtain your desired hero!

✔ Sanctuary of the Warrior – Stage 6 Release

• A higher difficulty tier of  Sanctuary of the Warrior will be unlocked.
• Drop rates for top-tier gear will be significantly increased to ensure meaningful progression.

✔ First Gran Weapon Hero Release

• A major character from the original Gran Saga will be introduced as a recruitable hero!

March Updates

✔ Second Dragonkin Hero Release + Special Dragonkin Event
✔ Challenge Content Overhaul

• Challenges like Elemental Spirit King Challenge have long been a way to measure hero strength and encourage competitive play.
• However, with recent updates such as Pets, Dragonkin, and Stat-boosting Codex effects, the difficulty curve has become unbalanced.
• We will rework the challenge system to preserve meaningful competition while improving rewards based on hero strength.

✔ Sanctuary of the Warrior – Stage 7 Release
✔ Equipment Upgrade System + Mass Dismantling Feature

• Currently, a hero’s equipment strength is determined by their tier and randomly assigned bonus stats.
• However, hero breakthroughs (level-ups), pet additions, and team-building improvements have reduced the relative impact of equipment value.
• To restore relevance, we are introducing an Equipment Customization System using Equipment Dismantle Stone.
• This will allow direct investment, reducing the over-sized RNG boundary in hero investments to further refine builds.

We’re constantly listening to feedback and working hard to make Gran Saga Idle the best experience possible.

Thank you for your continued support, and we can’t wait to share even more exciting updates with you soon!

Sincerely,

Gran Saga Idle:KNIGHTSxKNIGHTS Support Team.
