XD Inc.'s upcoming 3D turn-based gacha game, Etheria: Restart, is launching its global CBT soon! Registration for the closed beta test is now open. This is your chance to explore a futuristic metropolis teetering on the brink of collapse after a global catastrophe forced humanity into a digital existence.

Etheria: Restart CBT Dates:

The Etheria: Restart CBT runs from January 9th, 11:00 to January 20th, 11:00 (UTC+8). This is a data-wipe test, meaning progress will not carry over. The CBT will be cross-platform, allowing seamless transitions between mobile and PC with synchronized data.

A livestream showcasing more CBT details will be held on January 3rd at 19:00 (UTC+8) on YouTube, Twitch, and Discord. YouTube viewers can also participate in giveaways during the stream. Register for the CBT on the official website.

Gameplay Overview:

Following a global freeze, humanity's survival hinges on uploading consciousness to the digital sanctuary of Etheria. However, Etheria is also inhabited by Animus, beings powered by Anima energy. Their once harmonious coexistence is shattered by the Genesis disaster, corrupting the Animus and turning them hostile.

Players become Hyperlinkers, protectors of humanity in this virtual world, tasked with uncovering Etheria's dark secrets and saving everyone.

Powered by Unreal Engine, Etheria: Restart offers turn-based strategic combat with extensive team-building options. Players will strategize synergies, experiment with skill combinations, and outmaneuver opponents. Each Animus features a unique Prowess system and nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for customized combat styles. Engage in thrilling PvP duels or tackle challenging PvE content.
