Hotta Studio's highly anticipated game, Neverness to Everness, has reached a significant development milestone with the launch of sign-ups for the Containment Test, a closed beta phase. This PC-exclusive beta offers an early glimpse into the urban open-world action RPG, where you'll dive into a blend of chaos, exploration, and the unique Esper-driven powers that define the game's experience.
Set in the expansive city of Hethereau, Neverness to Everness introduces a world where supernatural anomalies intertwine with high-speed chases and the freedom of urban lifestyle. The game's trailers showcase its unique vibe, featuring elements like graffiti-tagged skateboards that seem to have a life of their own, otters with television heads, and an ever-present sense of midnight unease. As a player, you will harness Esper Abilities to navigate and explore this bizarre city, tackling mysterious anomalies while balancing the routine of daily life with the surreal crises that emerge.
The Containment Test is your first chance to experience the innovative systems that set Neverness to Everness apart from its competitors in the genre. One standout feature is the urban driving mechanic, which includes customizable cars and destructible environments for a touch of realism. Beyond combat, the game expands into lifestyle elements, such as home ownership and interior design, allowing you to immerse yourself in city life or indulge in decorating between missions.

The Containment Test will support English, Japanese, and Chinese voice-overs, with additional text language options available. Although currently limited to PC, the full release of Neverness to Everness is planned for PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android platforms. If you're eager to play on mobile, you'll need to hold on a bit longer.
Neverness to Everness is set to enter a competitive arena, facing off against titles like Zenless Zone Zero and Ananta in the urban RPG space. However, with the power of Unreal Engine 5 behind it and Hotta Studio's proven success with Tower of Fantasy, this new title has the potential to make its mark.
