Etheria Restart, 3D Turn-Based Game, Begins CBT Recruitment

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

Etheria: Restart CBT Dates:

The Etheria: Restart 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. It's also cross-platform compatible, allowing seamless transitions between mobile and PC with synchronized data.

A livestream unveiling further CBT details will air at 7:00 PM (UTC+8) on YouTube, Twitch, and Discord. Visit the official Etheria: Restart social media channels on January 3rd for registration details and YouTube giveaway information.

Gameplay Overview:

Following a catastrophic global freeze, humanity's survival hinges on uploading consciousness to the digital sanctuary known as Etheria. However, Etheria isn't solely inhabited by humans; it's also home to the Animus, beings fueled by Anima energy.

Their once harmonious coexistence shattered after the Genesis disaster corrupted the Animus, turning them hostile. Players become Hyperlinkers, protectors of humanity in this virtual realm, tasked with unveiling Etheria's dark secrets and securing everyone's safety.

Powered by Unreal Engine, the game offers deep turn-based strategic gameplay with extensive team-building options. Experiment with skill combinations, craft powerful synergies, and outmaneuver your opponents.

Each Animus boasts a unique Prowess system and nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for highly customizable combat styles. Engage in intense one-on-one PvP duels or tackle challenging PvE content.
