Greetings, Descendants.

After the finals voting for the 2026 Skin Contest began on 7/6 (Mon), we have identified some finalist entries appear to have used generative AI, and are writing to inform you of this.

First, we sincerely apologize for the confusion caused to Descendants due to our failure to review the entries thoroughly during the finalist selection process.

The entries in question will be restricted from receiving votes and will also be excluded from the rewards granted to finalists.

Accordingly, the voting status will be reset entirely so that voting can be held again in a fair environment,

and after the reset, we intend to hold the voting again on the schedule below.

  • (Updated) Re-voting Period: PDT 2026.07.07(Tue) 03:00 ~ 2026.07.21(Tue) 00:00

: Please note that access to the finals voting page will be temporarily restricted starting 07.07.2026 (Tue) 00:00 PDT to prepare for the re-voting.

  • Number of Votes: Up to 2 votes total, 1 vote per category (Descendant, Vehicle)

  • Participation Requirements: Only accounts with Mastery Rank 10 or higher can participate

We apologize for the inconvenience, but we kindly ask that you cast your votes once more after the voting status has been reset.

If any additional problematic entries are found during the voting period, we will promptly exclude them from voting and invalidate them.

Once voting has ended, we will more thoroughly review the original files submitted for the final winning entries and finalist entries,

and we will do our best to provide a fairer environment.

Thank you.
