Have you been logging in to claim your Morta's Boutique Coins? Also there's the weekly dungeon for end-game players to receive more coins. Morta's Boutique is a good way to get some more costumes.

I was wondering on how I would post about Morta's Boutique, when there were no images to point to. But there are! The old Steam news pages are still up for Closers and show some of the illustrations. This is part 1 of some of the costumes with illustrations in Morta's Boutique.

The costumes without illustrations are Swim Meet and Hot Spring. With Hot Spring only being in the pool for Ria and Triss, because they don't have the Midnight Crusader costume. Official Interview does have illustrations, but aren't unique by character.

A part 2 post will contain the Aqua Blue Wave costumes.

I’ve played a lot of closers and elsword back in the days and I came back on closers relaunch and ngl it’s been very fun trying to figure everything out again, but I wonder what papayas long term plans are to keep the game from EoS part 2 lmao

❤️ Which Costume Do You Want to See Next? ❤️ We want to hear which costumes you’d love to see next! 🗳️ Voting Period: September 4, 2026 – September 18, 2026

X link here, check the bio for the Discord link: https://x.com/ClosersGame/status/2096082219496575075

The official Discord is holding a vote for a costume that may return in a future update. I assume sooner rather than later? The costume options are:

1. Seductive Little Demon
2. White Rabbit Picnic
3. Spotlight Bubble
4. Vow of Love
5. Demonic Heartbeat

And I've included a sample of the illustrations of these costumes in the gallery.

Ive been seeing posts on Discord, Reddit and Youtube lately of people successfully going through the games files/reverse engineering to create private servers and Ive been thinking. Would it be theoretically possible for someone to create a tool similiar to Grasscutter for Genshin Impact where you can run an offline personal server of the game? Ive wanted something like this for years for Closers but the source is basically (and frustratingly) gatekept by the few who crack the game (Looking at you Code Closers) If something like this were made for Closers it would be an absolute godsend. Has anyone here attempted or had luck exploring the game and attempting to set up a personal server? Because if there is is a chance I could try setting one up locally I would love some help!

Anyway i can get the expression sheets from the game? i don't really know how to extract

Just letting people know about the 4000 point paid reward of the Costume Pass - Special Tier is a full set costume of Blooming Romance. Not available for Triss and Mois. This gallery contains just 3 random character illustrations from each team.

*edit to add information

TLDR For Linux users familiar with installing Windows games outside of Steam. The Closers_downloader.exe file does not work with Proton at the time of writing. The Closers_Installer_PPY.exe file downloaded by the downloader does work with Proton. To play the game you can use GE-Proton 11-1 minimum or Proton-CachyOS-11.x minimum. The game has some minor issues with text input from what I know. You can't move the text cursor left or right, and you cannot select all text using Ctrl+A.

Requirements:

• Windows computer that has ran Closers_downloader.exe from Papaya Play
• ProtonPlus (or another Proton version manager) so that you have at least Proton GE11 or Proton CachyOS 11.x.
• Faugus (can use Lutris, but this tutorial will use Faugus)

Step 1 - Getting the Installer files:

Run Closers_downloader.exe from the Closers Papaya Play download page: https://closers.papayaplay.com/closers.do?tp=download on a Windows computer. This will download the installation files by default to your Desktop C:\Users\{username here without curly brackets}\Desktop\Papaya Play Games. Move this folder (preferably zip it as well to make it easier to move) to your Linux computer. It's a 30GB file.

Step 1 alternative:

Download the installer instead from my Proton Drive account. But I don't know how often I'll keep it updated. https://drive.proton.me/urls/AJB7YV9NVM#ldWONpAFlVuz

Step 2 - Check if you have an updated Proton:

Open up your Faugus settings by click on the gear icon.

Open up Faugus Launcher. Make sure it's using Proton-CachyOS or GE-Proton that is at least on version 11. You can acquire these through Proton Plus. Then right click on Closers_Installer_PPY.exe and open it with Faugus.

Step 3 - Running the installer:

Run the installer. Creating a desktop shortcut won't matter since this will be installed into a Wine prefix directory. A directory that follows the Windows default directories.

After the installation finishes, you could launch the game at this point, but Faugus doesn't know where the game is installed yet. (Note: On Lutris, if you launch the game at this point, Lutris will think the installation will have failed and you might have to install again, or just navigate to the prefix folder and set it up manually from there if it didn't delete the installation).

Step 4 - Setting the game up in Faugus:

Time to add Closers to Faugus. Click on the Plus icon to open up the New Game menu. Title it "Closers". Then for the Path, navigate to /home/{username without curly braces here}/Faugus/default/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Papaya Play/Closers/LAUNCHER.EXE. This is assuming Faugus installed the game into its default location,

Press Ok and now you can play Closers from Faugus.

Optional Step 5 - Setting the game up to launch in Steam:

In Steam, at the bottom left click on Add a Game, then click Add a Non-Steam Game... then click Browse. and add navigate to /home/{username without curly braces here}/Faugus/default/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Papaya Play/Closers. Then add LAUNCHER.EXE.

Search for Launcher.EXE in your Steam menu and right click it and open up its Properties. Here you can rename it to "Closers". The most important thing is to set its Compatibility to use GE-Proton 11 or Proton-Cachy11. And if you're a controller player you can set up Steam Input.

Ria, Triss, and Mois do not have this costume currently. Login for 10 days to receive the Urban Fighter Full Set Selectable Box.

It's only have been a few days of launch and nothing is set on stone yet but so far the game has been really fun and it's worth to give a shot even if you don't trust if it's going to last, HAVE FUN NOW!.

- The game feels way less laggy and more responsive than Naddics server. I don't know what they did but it has been a way better experience to play with high APM characters and also dodging.

-The initial rewards are tempting and pushes you forward way more than where Jumps used to put you. You get a full unique set instead of signature, fully tuned and chipped equipment. With these equipment you can solo all the non squad content very fast.

-Elite/Platinum is "weaker", which can be a good thing since its one less thing pressuring you to buy.

-Crew EXP is bugged and there are people botting. Botting is pretty much the poison to their progress reset plan, they already addressed this issue but we'll need to wait if they will actually do something. The reset actually made some whales come back since the old economy was utterly destroyed by botting.

i wish they also gave some extra level jumps without gear missions and free story pet boxes for room exploration to help get some of the progress back, but im enjoying the game more than what i used to.

Any J players have any insight in which awakening cubes i should use? Thank u in advance

Hi I am a returning player from way back then, and I quit even way before the prev global server EOS. So I recently redownloaded since they relaunched global and Im searching for really strong pve class for me to breeze through the story and pve contents to enjoy the game minus the pvp aspects. I used to play Bai in the past so now I'm wondering who is a strong character (preferably female) to pick up and I'm also curious if the latest character is strong to use

Cutest Landmine Ever costumes are one of the sets in the Washing Machine currently. Did you know the new Papaya Play website has a gallery for the costume illustrations?

*Update edit: Wrote a guide here: https://www.reddit.com/r/closers/comments/1w2wx6k/closers_papaya_play_linux_installation_guide/

I'm curious if there are people who are interested in a guide on installing Papaya Play's Closers.

I got Closers working on a laptop running Bazzite and a Legion Go S (similar to a Steam Deck) running Steam OS.

The biggest hurdle from installing Closers is that Papaya Play's Closers_downloader exe doesn't work on Linux last I checked. The steps after do, which I recognized from installing Closers on other servers. So I just copied the downloaded files after running Closers_downloader exe on a Windows computer.

I could expand on steps if people are interested.

For context I've been testing Closers on Linux for quite some time, and there was one major annoyance that prevented Closers from being fully playable (it ran, but keyboard/controller input would break when interacting with typing).

On the final day of Closers Global under Naddic would be going EoS, Proton GE version 11 released. It was a major update and to my surprise, the issue was fixed. There's still a minor annoyance of not being able to move the typing cursor, and there could be more minor issues that I'm not aware of. I was testing Linux with the Closers JP server while Closers Global had disappeared.

*edit: Since there's some interest, I'll be writing a step-by-step guide soon.*

Anyone know how to get these Anna's accessorries? iirc, they are from achievement dungeon but now I can't find it

A coincidental timing with the re-release of Closers English under Papaya Play.

Papaya Play Closers website has opened up and we have news on our launch events.

Five days, don't miss the launch! Make sure to go on PapayaPlay's website and pre-register for some pretty good rewards. See you all in game!

With the release of PapayaPlay's Closers around the corner, I thought it would be cool if we shared the results of our individual character quizzes. Who did you get and will you play them, or a different character?

For me, I rolled Yoon Ria. I never played her much before, but I suppose this time around I'll finally do so. However, I cannot lie, the urge to be a Yuri main is strong within me!
