Grand Chase: Chaos now live

The relaunch of Grand Chase, known as Grand Chase: Chaos, has officially launched today.

The game’s rewards and experience have been rebalanced in favor of the players, with rewards now being displayed in real time and dungeon progression simplified. A new animation system seperates item animations from character model animations, as well.
