If you've been eagerly anticipating the launch of XD Games' Etheria: Restart, you're in for a treat. The final closed beta test (CBT) is now live, and it's your last opportunity to dive in before the game officially launches on June 5th. You can sign up through your preferred storefront or the official website, so don't miss out on this chance to get a firsthand experience of the game.
Set in a near-future world, Etheria: Restart takes place in a virtual sanctuary called Etheria, where humanity has transferred their consciousnesses. Here, they live alongside digital beings known as Animus. However, a new threat called the Genesis Virus jeopardizes this delicate balance. It's up to the Hyperlinker Union—and you—to fight back and restore peace.
With its stunning 3D visuals and a roster of unique heroes, Etheria: Restart emphasizes the strategic interplay and synergy between different characters. Players are encouraged to experiment with various team compositions to leverage the unique abilities of each Animus.

This closed beta test offers an intimate glimpse into some of its standout features, including the competitive draft-style PvP Real Time Arena, Guild vs Guild Combat, and a preview of the Etheria World Summit competitive PvP tournament.
During the beta, you'll also have the chance to try out the new SSR Animus Freya before the official launch. While the closed beta is packed with content, it's up to the players to decide if it's enough to make Etheria: Restart stand out from the competition.
