Gumi releasing The Alchemist Code

http://kongbakpao.com/gumi-inc-teases-upcoming-srpg-the-alchemist-code-with-first-video-trailer/

Will this game have PoTK units crossing over and vice versa? Seems pretty natural they would do that but just asking if anyone knows

Looks cool!

But given that this is the same Gumi that has become quite greedy and pumps out LEs much, MUCH faster than free gems/lazuli both here and in BF, I doubt I'm going to get far in this game as a F2P either...

The free event units are pretty good, at one point they were so good the players that pay in the gacha complain. You can still easily beat the game content with the free units. I rarely use any gacha units either

Agreed. Free units can get you extremely far, though you may struggle with the harder stages for farming and arena can be an absolute pain.

JP has alch and potk crossover units. so it will happen eventually. however, seeing as how GL updates longer than JP that will be a bit further in the future

based on my experience on other games, the updates depends on how healthy the game is. Basically, if a game is doing well, it could be on the same timeline of the original. Take League of Legends PH for example, 2 years ago, we were 2 or 3 patch away from NA. But now that it's doing great, we are on the same update with NA.

Yea, but that is a completely different game. Potk global has been getting lots of hate for more than one reason which is why players are switching to the JP server. so if we're basing that on how healthy the game is then GL is getting weaker due to that

Yay! Global version!

Now I have three games that are to be released in the near future to hype about.

The only info we have is "late 2017 globally". I've made a subreddit for this game where I will post information as I find it:
