Grand Archive is returning to Japan for an Ascent in the Asia Pacific Trade Center, a large mega venue in the beautiful city of Osaka! This event will only feature the Path of Steel as our main event but will also be among the first Ascents to see new changes to our Side Events and feature PRD Draft Pods!
Start Time: 8AM Saturday
End Time: 10PM Sunday
Where: Asia Pacific Trade Center (2 Chome-1-10 Nankokita, Suminoe Ward, Osaka, 559-0034, Japan)
One other change we can share with you is the addition of Ascent Store vouchers. Vouchers are included as part of entry packages and are valued at 400 Silvie Bucks (Ascent Store tickets). Vouchers can only be stacked with additional Silvie Bucks but NOT additional vouchers. This is a change we are making to increase the value gained from playing in Side Events. However, we are also making adjustments to the prices of various Ascent Store ticketed items to make up for this change.
Please look forward to all the changes as we announce them.
