ANNOUNCEMENTS OCT 4. 2022 APP STORE PRICE CHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT

Greetings Guardians,

We would like to inform you about the upcoming change in the price policy of the Apple App Store. Apple’s App Store price policy change is expected to be applied on October 6, 2022 to some regions/currency.

 

For details, please refer to the link below:

Upcoming price and tax changes for apps and in-app purchases

In order to keep the value of the packages as similar as possible, the sale prices for some packages varying by currency will be adjusted which means prices of the packages are subject to change. 

We kindly ask you to understand that In-game purchases from the Apple App Store would be temporarily blocked in advance and maintenance could take place. These actions are to prevent any possible mis-purchases during the in-app price update.

The price tier change will also be performed for Google Play Store reflective of the App Store price changes; maintenance may be performed without advance block of payment specifically for Google Play Store however due to the nature of its price tier change mechanics. 

The details on the following maintenance to be performed will be shared through a separate announcement. (maintenance dates are subject to change depending on the actual Apple App Store price policy update timing)

  • iOS (Apple App Store) payment block: October 5, 2022 13:00 UTC—October 6, 2022 15:00 UTC (expected) 09:00 UTC
  • AOS and iOS package price tier adjustment maintenance: October 6, 2022 01:00 UTC—02:59 UTC (expected)

We will also share with you the details of the App Store price update soon in a separate maintenance notice shortly.

Thank you
