In 2024, Crypton is aiming to hold a real concert overseas for the first time in four years.

Using cutting-edge technology, we will be providing a brand new concert experience never seen before!”

 

At this point, two hours after the launch, the campaign has collected 12,373,913 yen / 94,324 USD (31 percent of the goal) from 292 supporters.
