Neverness to Everness, Hotta Studio's highly anticipated new title, has reached a key development phase with the start of closed beta sign-ups. Dubbed the Containment Test, this PC-exclusive beta provides a first look at the game's unique fusion of urban exploration, chaotic action, and supernatural Esper abilities.
The game unfolds within the vast metropolis of Hethereau, a city where supernatural events disrupt everyday life, high-speed chases are common, and personal freedom reigns. Trailers hint at its distinctive, offbeat atmosphere—think sentient graffiti-covered skateboards, otters with TV heads, and an ever-present sense of nocturnal mystery.
Players will navigate this bizarre urban landscape using Esper powers, investigating strange anomalies while balancing mundane daily routines with extraordinary crises. The beta serves as an introduction to the core systems that differentiate Neverness to Everness from other games in the genre.
Setting it apart from typical open-world RPGs, the game emphasizes vehicular gameplay, featuring customizable cars and realistic, destructible collisions. Beyond combat, lifestyle elements like purchasing a home and decorating interiors let players immerse themselves in city life, offering a creative respite between missions.

The Containment Test will include English, Japanese, and Chinese voice acting, plus multiple text language options. Although initially for PC, the full release is slated for PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. Mobile players will need to be patient for their turn.
Neverness to Everness enters a competitive field, alongside titles like Zenless Zone Zero and Ananta in the urban RPG niche. However, powered by Unreal Engine 5's visual prowess and Hotta Studio's experience from Tower of Fantasy, it has strong potential to stand out.
