December 24, 2024 – February 23, 2025: Players can authorize game data transfer or revise their decision during this window.
February 14, 2025: Store and app distribution rights will transition to PWG. In-game transaction services will be disabled.
February 23, 2025: Level Infinite will terminate its servers and customer support services. PWG will announce the opening of new servers.

Voice-Over Discontinuation Details

With the release of version 4.5, Tower of Fantasy will no longer feature English and Japanese voice-overs for the main male and female protagonists. This decision stems from the publishing adjustments. However, all previously recorded voice-overs from earlier versions will remain accessible.

What This Means for Players

This operational shift signifies a new chapter for Tower of Fantasy under the direct management of PWG. While some features, such as protagonist voice-overs, will be impacted, PWG has assured players that their game data can be securely transferred during the transition period. Players are encouraged to complete the data transfer promptly to avoid data loss.
