We got Anime GTA before GTA 6.

Perfect World Games has announced a Neverness to Everness (NTE) closed beta, alongside a three-minute-long new trailer that showcases its gorgeous urban open world, life-sim features, supernatural elements, driving sequences, action combat, and its many, visually enthralling characters. 

The NTE containment test is set to begin soon. While it won’t be available everywhere, most countries will be part of it, albeit with a few jarring exceptions like India.

This guide covers everything you need to know about the Neverness to Everness (NTE) closed beta test, including its release date and how to pre-register for it.

While Perfect World Games has yet to announce a Neverness to Everness closed beta test release date, we expect it to be sooner rather than later. It’s shaping up to be a busy summer for Perfect World Games, what with Persona 5: The Phantom X's global release date on the horizon. 

With that in mind, a late summer (July-August) window seems like an ideal start time for the Neverness to Everness closed beta test. However, it’s just pure speculation on our behalf. 

Perfect World Games will confirm the end time of the NTE closed beta test registration at a later date, but we recommend registering for it as soon as possible. It should only take a few minutes.

You can pre-register for the NTE closed beta test on its official website. You will find two options: Pre-register and Join Beta. Make sure to pre-register first with your desired email address. Use the same email for both options, or else you won't qualify for the Containment test. 

The NTE best test registration is primarily a survey document of questions about your familiarity and experiences with other gacha games, RPGs, and open-world titles. There are also questions about Hotta Studio’s past titles like Tower of Fantasy, so it’s best to answer them honestly.

It's worth noting that completing the survey doesn't guarantee access to the NTE beta, as seats are limited.

The NTE beta test will be available exclusively on PC (Windows). A macOS version of the game is in development, but it won’t be included in the test. The survey also includes questions regarding your PC’s specifications. Given that it’s a UE 5 game, expect some top-tier PC system requirements.

What regions will the Neverness to Everness (NTE) closed beta test cover?
