XD Inc.'s upcoming 3D turn-based gacha game, Etheria: Restart, is launching its global Closed Beta Test (CBT). Registration is now open for this chance to explore a futuristic metropolis teetering on the brink of collapse after a global catastrophe forced humanity into a digital existence.

Gameplay Overview:
Following a global freezing event, humanity's survival hinges on a digital refuge called Etheria. However, Etheria is also home to the Animus, beings powered by Anima energy. Their once harmonious coexistence is shattered by the Genesis disaster, which corrupts the Animus, turning them hostile.
Players become Hyperlinkers, protectors of humanity within this virtual world. The objective is to unravel Etheria's dark secrets and ensure the survival of all.
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 possesses a unique Prowess system and access to nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for personalized combat styles. Engage in intense one-on-one duels in PvP mode or tackle challenging PvE content.
