Thank you for always using 'SEGA FOOTBALL CLUB CHAMPIONS.'

As announced recently on the official SNS,
we would like to once again explain and apologize for the changes to advantage Approach in the "RENAUD'S CHALLENGE" event, scheduled to be held after the April update Ver.1.3.

■ About the Changes
In the official program "Saka Tsuku TV #6," we had communicated that the advantage Approach for this event would be "React."
However, due to the necessity of adjustments arising from the circumstances described below, we have changed it to "Keep Moving."

■ Background Leading to the Changes
The "RENAUD'S CHALLENGE" event is scheduled to be held after the April update Ver.1.3,
and development is underway to make it a regularly held event moving forward.

This event triggers a match against the team led by Renault after achieving 3 wins in World Premiership. The advantageous Approach changes with each event.

The circumstances leading to this change are as follows:
For the first event, the advantageous Approach was planned to be "React," and for the second event, the advantageous Approach was planned to be "Keep Moving."
However, it was confirmed that the players introduced around the same time as the event were at a disadvantage in terms of Approach for this event, resulting in a lack of compatibility and correlation with the event.
Therefore, we decided to swap the advantageous Approach for the first and second events. However, this decision disregarded the information we had previously communicated during the program broadcast and lacked sufficient consideration.

■ Impact on Users
Due to this change, based on the information provided in the official broadcast,
We apologize for any inconvenience caused to those who had been preparing for player development and team formation.
Regarding this matter, there were deficiencies in the management's decision-making and information dissemination.

Additionally, regarding the announcement of the changes on the official X, we failed to explain the reasons behind the changes,
We deeply regret that we conveyed the unilateral changes without providing sufficient details about the event schedule and content. We sincerely apologize.

Once again, the schedule and advantageous Approach for the "RENAUD'S CHALLENGE" event are as follows.
"RENAUD'S CHALLENGE" Event
First Session: Starting after the Ver.1.3 update. Advantageous Approach: "Keep Moving"
Second Session: Early June 2026. Advantageous Approach: "React"

■ Explanation at the SakaTsu Summit (Discord Event)
Regarding this matter, additional explanations were also provided by the director and producer during SakaTsuku Summit #2 held on April 3, 2026.
It is not an ideal situation that only participants were aware of this information, so we have reiterated it in this announcement.

■ Apology and Measures
As an apology for this matter, the following items were distributed on 2026/4/3 8:00 (GMT).

- Trainer Upgrade Module × 50,000
- Player Upgrade Module × 30,000
- Golden Boots × 10
- Performance Wristband × 3

Additionally, we will issue an additional apology regarding this matter at a later date for the confusion we have caused.

To prevent similar incidents in the future,
- Review of the timing for presenting recommended configurations related to events
- Clarification of the criteria for changes to previously announced content
Among other things, we will continue to improve our management structure.

■ Finally
We sincerely apologize once again for the confusion and inconvenience caused to everyone.
We will continue to strive to provide a better gaming experience.
We appreciate your continued support for 『SEGA FOOTBALL CLUB CHAMPIONS』.
