Update on the Lucent Soirée Theme Pack Release Plan

Hello, EZ2ON players.

This is FOX-B, Producer & Director of "EZ2ON REBOOT : R".

It has been nearly a year since we first announced plans for the 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack'.

We originally planned to release the 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack' as a separate DLC from the music content. However, due to a number of circumstances, it has taken considerably longer than we anticipated.

First and foremost, we sincerely apologize to all EZ2ON players who have been waiting for so long.

During that time, we repeatedly reconsidered the best way to deliver the content planned for the 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack'.

Given how long players have already waited, we felt it would not be right to ask them to make an additional purchase for content that is only now ready.

Instead, we believe the better approach is to provide it at no additional cost to everyone who chose to purchase Lucent Soirée in the first place.

Accordingly, the 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack' will no longer be released as a separate DLC and will instead be included with the existing 'Lucent Soirée Music Pack' DLC.

Please see below for the full details.

<Changes>

- The 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack' will not be released as a separate DLC.
- The new theme skin will be included with the 'Lucent Soirée Music Pack' DLC.
- The DLC will be renamed from 'Lucent Soirée Music Pack' to 'Lucent Soirée'.
- Players who already own the 'Lucent Soirée Music Pack' will be able to use the new theme skin automatically, with no additional purchase or registration required.
- Existing songs, play data, records, and content access rights will not be affected in any way.

Meanwhile, the base price adjustment for 'Lucent Soirée', which we announced when the DLC was released and reiterated in recent sale announcements, will proceed as planned.

The revised price will apply only to future purchases. Players who currently own the 'Lucent Soirée Music Pack' will not be charged anything additional.

When we first planned Lucent Soirée, what we wanted to present to you was never simply a Music Pack containing a collection of songs.

Through the 'Lucent Soirée Theme Pack', we wanted to convey the visual atmosphere and flow that accompany the music, as well as the sense of a complete experience created by all of these elements together.

Our team feels a deep sense of responsibility for not having delivered that complete vision when we originally intended.

For that reason, rather than offering part of that vision as a separate product at this stage, we believe it is more faithful both to our original intent and to what Lucent Soirée has become to let you experience it as one complete package.

We do not see changing the structure and delivery of content as simply a matter of reorganizing a product.

It is also about honoring the expectations and trust that players placed in us when they made their purchase.

The EZ2ON series has continued to change and grow together with its players over many years.

That is why we will never take the trust you have shown us for granted, and we will continue to take responsibility for the content we have promised and for the time you have spent waiting.

Once again, we sincerely apologize to everyone who has waited so long, and thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We can finally share another side of 'Lucent Soirée' with you, one that exists alongside its music.

We hope you enjoy tomorrow's theme update.

Thank you.
