Shanghai, China – January 9, 2025.
The Shanghai-based (China) indie games publisher and developer XD Games, today announced with great joy and thrill that they have just kicked-off a closed beta session for their beautiful anime adventure/RPG “Etheria: Restart“ (the said closed beta is available right now for PC via Steam).

The stage is set for players to immerse themselves in a visually enthralling, strategy-packed adventure that combines breathtaking storytelling, dynamic combat mechanics, and limitless customization.

Players are invited to dive into a virtual realm, where mankind coexists with the Animus – beings who wield mysterious Anima powers – as they hide from a catastrophic global freeze. Along with a carefully cultivated team of powerful Animus, players must confront the dangers lurking within the digital utopia.

Those who participate in the CBT can enjoy strategic, turn-based combat, diverse PvP experiences in the Arena, and a dazzling, enigmatic world to explore in PvE fashion. There’s plenty of secrets to uncover, as well as powerful foes to fight with stunning 3D battle animations.

The beta also offers an array of customisation options, from Shell Equipment to Ether Modules, and a diverse selection of Animus compositions to try out. Build a cunning team with a dual-wielding Reaper, or exude power with a metropolitan Empress on a quest to find the ultimate character combo..
