The exchange shop for the Liberation Flag Campaign Medal, earned in the Event Thinking Chronicle, was charging far more medals than intended for several items. Konami has confirmed the bug and is sending every player the shortfall as compensation.

What Went Wrong

The bug has been live since September 9, 2026, 18:00. Four exchanges were priced wrong:

Item Intended cost Actual cost
Fantasy Stone 250 medals 500 medals
Yuukoku’s 3rd Coin 40 medals 800 medals
Pochi 2 medals 70 medals
Pochi 6 medals 180 medals

Konami traced the fault to the Event Thinking Chronicle’s SCORE setting: it awarded less SCORE than intended, so the campaign medals it feeds were also harder to earn than planned.

Compensation

Every player receives the following, sent as an apology through the in-game notice:

  • Fantasy Stone ×1,000
  • Yuukoku’s 3rd Coin ×20
  • Pochi ×80,000

Fantasy Stone is half of the exchange’s full stock at the correct rate; the other two items are sent in full, since Konami judged their broken rate too difficult to farm around. The required medal counts themselves are not being changed — the exchange shop keeps working, just at the listed (bugged) rate.

Claim the reward from the in-game notice by September 24, 2026, 11:59.

The Fix

A temporary maintenance is scheduled for September 12, 2026, 02:00–04:00 to correct the SCORE setting that caused the shortfall.
