Elsword Welcome the Grand Chasers

After the announced closing of Grand Chase's North American servers, Elsword seems to be inviting the Chasers over with some bonus incentives. For those making the switch over, KOG Games is offering a huge level boost for any characters that they may play. Characters will be boosted up to level 70, depending on the player's Grand Chase characters' levels. Additional bonus items such as Support Cubes and Link Up coins are also being offered, so this is a great way to make the transition from Grand Chase to Elsword.

ArcheAge to Get Obsidian Weapons

In the upcoming "Secrets of Ayanad" update, ArchAge will be receiving some special new weapons.

However, the quest chain is not to be underestimated.
