"Neverness to Everness Advances with Containment Test"

Hotta Studio's latest project, Neverness to Everness, has reached a significant development milestone with the launch of sign-ups for its closed beta, known as the Containment Test. This PC-exclusive beta offers early access to the urban open-world action RPG, which promises a unique mix of chaos, exploration, and Esper-driven powers.

Set in the expansive city of Hethereau, Neverness to Everness creates an environment where supernatural anomalies intertwine with high-speed chases and a lifestyle of freedom. The game's trailers showcase a peculiar atmosphere, featuring graffiti-tagged skateboards that seem to have a life of their own, otters with television heads, and a pervasive midnight unease.

Players will navigate this bizarre city using Esper Abilities, confronting mysterious anomalies while balancing everyday life with surreal crises. The Containment Test provides an initial glimpse into the innovative systems that distinguish Neverness to Everness from other games in its genre.

Neverness to Everness Gameplay

Unlike traditional open-world RPGs, urban driving is a central mechanic in Neverness to Everness, with customizable cars and destructible environments enhancing the realism. The game also includes lifestyle elements like home ownership and interior design, expanding the experience beyond combat and allowing players to immerse themselves in city life or indulge in home decoration between missions.

The Containment Test supports English, Japanese, and Chinese voice-overs, along with additional text language options. Currently, the beta is limited to PC, but the full release is anticipated for PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. Mobile users eager to dive into the world of Neverness to Everness will need to be patient for a bit longer.

While Neverness to Everness enters a competitive urban RPG market alongside titles like Zenless Zone Zero and Ananta, it stands out with the power of Unreal Engine 5 and Hotta Studio's proven experience from Tower of Fantasy. This new world could very well establish its own unique presence in the gaming landscape.
