Hello Commanders. 


This is Sunny, the Project Director of ASTROKINGS. 


This year, ASTROKINGS has entered its fourth year of service. On behalf of AN Games, I would like to express my sincere and deep gratitude as we were able to come this far. Thanks to the support of our Commanders.


And today, I am going to share the ASTROKINGS update roadmap that many people are curious about and to hear the opinions of the commanders.


Our development team is preparing for the 2022 update roadmap as follows.


<ASTROKINGS 2022 Roadmap>


Major Updates:

- Improve the interface for a better experience

- Add national policy preset function

- Rally attack fleet commander management improvements

- Various improvements and updates reflecting on user requirements

- Added new regular flagships and improve functions related to the boarding of the flagship crew

- The beginning of evolution as a P2E (Play to Earn) game

- Added new event type

- Added new challenge content

- Added new game system to improve P2E value

- Added various decorative elements

- Collaboration event


▶ Evolution to P2E game

We plan to issue coins (NFTs) that are linked to the blockchain token system, and support ASTROKINGS to acquire these coins. 


The reason ASTROKINGS chose to evolve into a P2E game was that it was determined that it would be the best way to grow the value of ASTROKINGS and the play value of commanders in the long term.


The goal of the development team is to introduce the update that is the basis of the P2E game to the commanders before the end of this year.


▶ Collaboration event

We are negotiating with several IP holders with the goal of holding one or two collaboration events in 2022.


We will do our best to prepare a collaboration event that our commanders will be satisfied with.


We ask for your understanding that it is difficult to tell what kind of collaboration event will be held yet.


▶ Other updates

1. National Policy Presets

One of the many requested features of our commanders is the ability to prepare multiple sets of national policies in advance and quickly change them as needed. We hope this feature will allow us to be more agile in different strategies.


2. Rally attack fleet commander management function

This is a measure to enable the commander to carry out the intended strategic battle during a rally attack, and it is also one of the suggestions requested by many commanders, so we plan to update it with a higher priority.


3. Add a new event type

This is an update that we are preparing to reduce the boredom caused by the limited number of repeated seasonal events. In addition, we plan to update challenging content that can be conducted at any time within the year.

In addition, valuable suggestions received through surveys, community, and user suggestions are also planned to be reflected in the update step by step as much as possible. 


We'll share some of the things we are reviewing first.


- Add a low-level protection system

- Improved federation news (request to know more about federation members’ activities)

- Improved search for archived mail

- Flagship equipment disassembly and improvement of crafting convenience

- Supports flagship list sorting function

- Supports galaxy map bookmark sorting function

- Supports enemy invasion alert filtering function

- In-game server time display

- Support for organizing and disposing of item storage

- Reduced lag, disconnection, and improved stability


Finally, among the opinions of our commanders, there are many complaints that the service policy (such as abusing and chat-related restrictions) is biased toward a specific country, Whatever the reason is, we sincerely apologize for causing such misunderstanding and inconvenience. 


And, I would like to take this opportunity to say it again. Our operation team maintains the service policy on a completely fair standard and promises to maintain a consistent service operation policy on the same basis regardless of nationality or other conditions. Please refrain from posting offensive or violent chat messages that harm other commanders or abusing behavior that violates the service policy.


This 2022, we ask for our commanders' support for ASTROKINGS. And we also wish our commanders good luck this year. 


Best regards,

Sunny Choi
