First Insights into the New MMORPG
What is the purpose of the Closed Beta? With the closed testing phase for Astellia, the team aims to test some elements of the MMORPG before launch and gather player feedback.
- Server performance will be tested.
- The PvE progress needs to be checked to see if the balancing is correct.
- Player data will be collected to help the team plan future content.
- It needs to be evaluated how players actually play, which systems they use, which are not welcomed, and whether the dungeons need optimizing.
- The Korean tutorial must be adapted for Western players. The Closed Beta should assist with this.
What can you play? You will have access to the game in its basic form. You will complete quests, fight, and experience group content such as dungeons.
- You will be allowed to test the revamped combat system, where active dodging is now possible.
- You will see the improved animations.
- An in-game wiki can be used.
- A special NPC levels you up to level 50, so you can also try high-level content during the five days of the beta. However, you need to reach level 10 first.
When does the download start? All those who received beta access, whether through the selection process or the purchase of the Legendary Package, should have received a download link for the client by now. You can already start the pre-load. However, you may only play from June 25.
Will there be a wipe after the beta? Yes, the developers have stated that all character progress will be deleted after the end of the Closed Beta.
Will there be reports from the beta? There is no mention of the Closed Beta of Astellia being subject to an NDA. This means we can probably expect many reports and impressions from the test phase.
