Massive New Content In Final Closed Beta

Get ready, Etherians—the next stage of Etheria: Restart is coming in hot, and the recent developer livestream dropped a massive bombshell of updates, improvements, and brand-new content that’s set to reshape the game’s upcoming Closed Beta Test (CBT) and global launch. Whether you’re a veteran of the previous CBT or someone just now hopping aboard the Etheria: Restart hype train, this article will break down everything you need to know about what’s coming—because believe us, there’s a lot to unpack.

The CBT is leveling up with a fresh injection of story content. Etheria: Restart is introducing new narrative chapters that not only bring more lore and world-building but also incorporate the game’s newest characters and systems. We’re talking about full-on storytelling evolution—ideal for those of us who love immersive narratives tied closely to gameplay.

But that’s not all. Say hello to Anomaly Bosses—massive, high-stakes encounters that serve both as story climaxes and endgame content. One standout example? DokiDoki, an anomaly boss who will also become a playable unit. That kind of dual-role boss design is an exciting twist that could lead to some epic campaign moments and future meta shifts.

New heroes are the lifeblood of any gacha-based RPG, and Etheria: Restart isn’t holding back. Six brand-new characters are confirmed for the final CBT, including Beyontin, Lingluo, and Rahu, with a total of eleven new units slated to join the game over time. That’s a huge pool expansion, giving players more tactical flexibility and squad synergy potential than ever before.

Each character brings their own flavor and mechanics to the table, and from the looks of things, the devs are really taking the time to “cook” up some quality designs—not just visually, but mechanically as well.

Boss battles in Etheria: Restart have always stood out for their visual flair and strategic challenge—and the new lineup only raises the bar. Each of the four bosses brings something unique to the table:

• Whitney – A time-based boss with clock-themed animations that are gorgeous and intimidating.
• Sharon – Mysterious, menacing and harp-wielding, we’re waiting to see her gear drops and encounter mechanics in the beta.
• Astarte – A water-elemental boss who can split into multiple forms. Her animation was described as “insane,” and for good reason.
• Lintel – A manifestation of DokiDoki’s intelligence, featuring a slick design and intense presence.

These bosses will likely play a central role in PvE content and story progression, making them must-see encounters for lore lovers and min-maxers alike.

Let’s be real—this is one of the most anticipated additions: Live Real-Time PvP. It’s finally happening in the upcoming CBT, and the system is shaping up to be serious. Players will be able to jump into 40-day ranked seasons, complete unranked placement matches, and participate in draft-style battles starting as early as Bronze rank.

The real kicker? No dupes allowed in certain modes, which opens the door for more strategic diversity. Combine that with ban-pick formats, and it’s clear the devs are aiming for an esports-worthy PvP experience that rewards skill over wallet size.

Multiplayer fans rejoice! Etheria: Restart is adding a new co-op raid mode called Phantom Sound Theater. Think Summoners War-style dragon raids, but with Etheria’s aesthetic and mechanics. You’ll team up with others (likely clanmates or friends) to take down massive bosses and score loot-filled chests.

Each raid rotates every three days, offering score-based challenges that can rank up to Triple S. The content’s not daily-grind mandatory, but it offers a nice burst of co-op action and progression incentives.

Clans (or Alliances, as Etheria calls them) are getting their own mode too! In Source Network Command, players band together to clear “infected areas” before converging to defeat a final boss. While details are light, this mode is shaping up to be the guild-focused, large-scale PvE experience the community’s been craving.

Now this one might’ve flown under the radar, but it’s huge: Every single character in the game has had their artwork enhanced. We’re talking refined details, improved textures, and even design changes—like new outfit accessories or visual effects. These tweaks also carry over into their in-game sprites, making Etheria: Restart look crisper and more vibrant than ever before.

• Challenge Bosses now have difficulty tiers (Hell 1-3), increased rewards, and revamped mechanics. First-time clears are more valuable, offering a mix of premium and progression-focused resources.
• Character Challenges dive deeper into lore with VA-led storytelling and unique conditions. They’ll be a treat for lore buffs and offer some rewards for completion.
• Star Completion System for Auto Battles introduces a slick scaling mechanic—1 star gives 5 runs, 2 stars give 8, and 3 stars (under a minute!) give 10 runs. Expect this to be tweaked, but it’s a great QOL addition.

Efficiency is the name of the game now. A new One-Click Upgrade system lets you level, promote, and ascend characters instantly. The Mutual Aid feature allows higher-level players to support lower-level friends with combat assistance. Plus, the UI has gotten a glow-up with everything from gacha screens to lineup presets and team-building suggestions getting modernized and streamlined.

Want your main character to stand out? You’ll be able to equip customizable skins for both your MC and your adorable robo-pet. There are even color palette swaps for characters like Leon, letting you change hair and outfit colors to suit your style.

Etheria: Restart isn’t just launching a beta—it’s launching a whole new standard for gacha ARPGs. With an overwhelming amount of fresh content, high-quality polish, and community-focused features like PvP and co-op, the game is clearly aiming to be more than just another title in your roster.

If you haven’t already, get pre-registered, keep your eyes on the official Discord, and prepare for one of the most content-packed beta phases we’ve seen in mobile gaming.
