New East Tower Quest

Our JP affiliate Cotan reports that: "East Tower," a new GC quest will be available on Tuesday, May 27, JP time. News of this new quest was published in the current 5/23 Famitsu magazine.

East Tower will have you journeying in the Control Tower. This quest will introduce you to the eastern portion of the Control Tower. The western portion of the Control Tower was introduced in the last GC online quest: Seat of the Heart. East Tower will be an online quest and will be playable for up to 4 people. 2 NPC's, Paganini and Hopkins, will reappear in this quest. It is speculated that you might need to beat Seat of the Heart to play this quest.

There will be a server maintenance on Tuesday, May 27 to load the quest onto the servers. Please end all games before the scheduled maintenance and do not log onto the servers during the scheduled maintenance. The time of the maintenance is currently unknown.

Since all information right now is in Japanese, we'll post more info when and as we get them.
