The First Descendant is out, and, like with all online launches, some things aren’t exactly going according to plan—we’re looking at you, Caliber currency.
Despite all the beta testing imaginable, The First Descendant’s release was subject to an annoying shaders error, black screen error, and problems with beta test rewards. But the one thing universally affecting everyone is missing Caliber currency microtransactions.
Here’s everything we know about The First Descendant Caliber (currency) bug.
I didn’t receive my Caliber in The First Descendant
If you bought a Caliber pack in The First Descendant but didn’t receive anything, you aren’t alone. In fact, it seems nobody received their Caliber after purchase.
The official Discord has been plagued with complaints about not receiving paid-for Caliber. Fortunately, the developers responded to this growing complaint, and here’s what they said on the official Discord server:
“Greetings Descendants. We have identified an issue where there is a delay in the delivery of Caliber upon payment and Twitch Drops reward.
■ Found issue
- Delay upon Caliber delivery into inventory
- Delay in Twitch Drops reward
We are working swiftly to determine the cause and will implement a fix as soon as possible. Once the issue has been resolved, we will update you through this notice.”
The message was issued to all socials and gained a lot of steam and traction as a result.
When will I get my Caliber in The First Descendant?
You should receive your Caliber via in-game mail or in-game shop soon because players have reported on Discord about finally getting their Caliber.
“Finally, I got my Caliber,” one user on Discord said, whereas another player commented, “Just got Calibers, purchased at launch.” It’s definitely being sent out to players who have paid for the premium currency—it just might take some time.
Depending on the severity of the disruption and inconvenience, don’t be surprised if you get a compensation reward because of the issue. These things happen in live-service games, and developers often send out gifts as apologies to players. Stay tuned for updates on this possibility.
Being a free-to-play game, the last thing The First Descendant needs is players not wanting to buy premium currency, so you can bet this is a top priority issue for the developers. Check out all characters and how to unlock them and who the best starting character is.
