XD Inc.'s upcoming 3D turn-based gacha game, Etheria: Restart, is launching its global Closed Beta Test (CBT). 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 CBT runs from January 9th, 11:00 AM to January 20th, 11:00 AM (UTC+8). This is a data-wipe test, meaning progress won't carry over, and it offers cross-platform play (mobile and PC) with data synchronization.

A livestream revealing more CBT details will air on YouTube, Twitch, and Discord at 7:00 PM (UTC+8) on January 3rd. YouTube viewers can also participate in giveaways.

Register for the CBT via the official website. For a preview before signing up, check out this trailer:

Gameplay Overview:

Following a global freeze, humanity's survival depends on a digital refuge called Etheria. However, this haven is also home to the Animus, beings powered by Anima energy. A catastrophic event known as Genesis corrupted the Animus, turning them hostile.

Players become Hyperlinkers, protectors of humanity in Etheria, tasked with uncovering its dark secrets and restoring peace. The Unreal Engine-powered game features turn-based combat with deep team-building mechanics. Experiment with character synergies, skill combinations, and strategic maneuvers to defeat opponents.

Each Animus possesses a unique Prowess system and access to nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for extensive customization of combat styles. Engage in intense one-on-one PvP duels or tackle challenging PvE content.
