Currency Policy Updates
To simplify players’ currency purchases and in-game purchases, we are making a small update to the value of NCoin and consolidating purchase options across our games on March 12, 2024.
The quick summary is:
- Players will lose no value in the currency changes, and in fact, any existing NCoin balance will increase.
- Players will have clearer options to purchase items.
- A long-term currency expiration policy will be added, with any currency purchased before March 12, 2024 being granted 9 years of validity from that date.
Let’s get into the details.
Lineage II and Blade & Soul Currency
Effective date: March 12, 2024
- NCoin Value Adjustment
- What’s the change?
- Until now, one dollar could purchase approximately 80 NCoin. As of the effective date, one dollar can now purchase 100 NCoin.
- What does that mean for the NCoin, codes, or coupons I already have?
- We will automatically apply a 1.25 multiplier to your NCoin balance. That means for every 80 NCoin you have, you will be converted up to 100 NCoin.
- Existing code or coupon products that players have purchased but not yet redeemed will also be converted up by that 1.25 multiplier.
- As part of the redemption flow, you will see this change and your specific updated NCoin value explained again.
- NCoin Validity and Expiration Period
- What’s the change?
- Previously, NCoin never expired. To better manage our systems, we are implementing a paid NCoin validity period of 9 years.
- What does that mean for the NCoin I already have in my account?
- The 9-year timer will begin on March 12, 2024. Any currency purchased on or before that date will expire on March 12, 2033.
- What does that mean for any NCoin I purchase after March 12, 2024?
- Any currency purchased after March 12, 2024 will be valid for 9 years from the purchase date. After that, the NCoin will automatically expire.
AION Currency
Effective date: March 12, 2024
- Conversion and Value Change of Black Cloud Coin to NCoin
- What’s the change?
- Black Cloud Coin, a currency exclusive to the AION live server, will be converted to NCoin and can be used across other NC America PC games like Lineage II and Blade & Soul.
- What does that mean for the Black Cloud Coin I already have?
- Black Cloud Coin purchased before March 12, 2024 will be converted to NCoin automatically in your account at a rate of 80 Black Cloud Coin to 100 NCoin. This is a 1.25 value multiplier, in line with the NCoin changes listed in the Lineage II and Blade & Soul section.
- Existing code or coupon products that players have purchased but not yet redeemed will also be converted to NCoin by that 1.25 multiplier.
- As part of the redemption flow, you will see this change and your specific updated NCoin value explained again.
- NCoin (formerly Black Cloud Coin) / Quna Validity and Expiration Period
- What’s the change?
- Previously, NCoin (formerly Black Cloud Coin) and Quna never expired. To better manage our systems, we are implementing a paid NCoin and Quna validity period of 9 years.
- What does that mean for the NCoin and Quna I already have in my account?
- The 9-year timer will begin on March 12, 2024. Any currency purchased on or before that date will expire on March 12, 2033.
- What does that mean for any NCoin or Quna I purchase after March 12, 2024?
