REALITY Newsletter - July 2024
Hello, everyone! This is SALMON from the Community Team 🐟
The hot summer has arrived. How are you all doing? I, SALMON, love summer! Why? Because there's so much to enjoy, like fireworks festivals, eating ice cream, and all the fun that comes with summer✨. To make the most of this season, let's be sure to take care of ourselves and avoid heatstroke and summer fatigue!
Now, we’ve had various updates and events this month, and I’d like to share them with you. So, let’s dive into the REALITY Newsletter July 2024 Edition!
Updates
■ Changes in the Remittance Method
REALITY used Payoneer as the remittance method for the exchanges of Live Points into real money for users outside of Japan since 2022, but lately, the remittance method has been updated and changed to Wise.
The details about how to transfer your Live Points into real money using Wise will be shared soon and we plan to commence the payments via Wise on August 26, but please check the details in the Notice below!

■ Update on the Region Setting Changes
REALITY has reached its 6th anniversary, and now, with over 15 million downloads worldwide, it is enjoyed by users all around the globe.
Until now, in addition to supporting 12 languages, we have undertaken various efforts to provide content tailored to each region. However, to ensure a more comfortable experience for users in more regions, we are introducing a new specification (hereafter referred to as "Region Lock") that will impose some restrictions on changing region settings, like a 30-day cooldown time before changing regions again.

Message from the Staff
Metaverse! This is DJ RIO, REALITY's CEO. 🦊
How's everyone doing with summer in full swing in the Northern Hemisphere? As for me, I've been dedicating myself to developing a skillful bleed build with reverse-hand dual-wield swords in the Real of Shadows. While the Impenetrable Thorns Build, Perfume Bottle Build, and Shield Poke Build are rumored to be strong, my vision of the "self I want to become" involves bewildering enemies with dance-like footwork, chipping away at their poise with dual-wielded rapid strikes, dodging their attacks with a blindside counter, and finishing them off with massive bleed damage in a stylish way.
See you all next month!
Hello! This is Sizu, the Product Manager!
I wrote about the release of the Supporter Badge in April, so it’s a bit of a quick return, isn’t it? This time, I want to talk about the “Wishlist Gift” feature that I planned and was recently released!
The idea for this feature came about when I noticed that streamers would write “Collecting XX Gifts!” on a whiteboard at the start of every stream. I thought, "Isn't there a way to handle this with a feature? And it must be tough to find the right gift to send, too."
I was nervous about how it would be received until it was released, but now I’m thrilled that so many streamers are using it! (By the way, it's interesting how each streamer shows their personality through the gifts they collect, isn't it? lol)
Also, with the 6th anniversary coming up, we’re preparing some fun features for everyone to enjoy, so please look forward to it!
See you again!
Hello! This is IKURA, the Community Manager. Thanks to all of you who continue to enjoy using REALITY, we’ve reached our 6th anniversary! I’m truly grateful!
It’s almost been 3 years since I joined REALITY, and I’m both amazed and a bit shaken by how quickly time has flown by. During this time, I’ve had the opportunity to organize offline events, join your streams, and host my own streams (although I haven’t done one recently, I’ve been fortunate to receive DMs saying, “Hurry up and stream already!”—I’ll open one again soon!!!!!!), and even got to eat a tarantula on a show. These experiences have given me so many wonderful memories.
Moving forward, I’ll continue to work hard to create more great memories with all of you and to celebrate REALITY’s anniversary every year. Thank you for your continued support of REALITY!
See you soon~!
