Ridiculous Start for All Players!

As we inch closer to the highly anticipated third Closed Beta Test (CBT3) for Etheria: Restart, XD Entertainment has dropped a bombshell of content—teasing four epic new challenge bosses, unveiling a mountain of free rewards, and revealing a revamped summoning system that’s already getting players hyped for launch. Whether you’re gearing up for CBT3 or planning your strategy for global release, there’s a ton to unpack—and it’s all looking incredibly promising.

Let’s dive into what’s cooking in Etheria: Restart’s next phase.

The new bosses arriving in CBT3 aren’t just eye candy—they come packed with rich lore, dark vibes, and mechanics that promise intense battles. Each one oozes personality and challenge, and honestly? They’re all potential favorites in the making.

Sharon is probably one of the most striking bosses introduced so far. Once a renowned tuner in the Shindu region, betrayal led to her tragic downfall—costing her arms and freezing her heart. Now infused with sorrowful music and corrupted energy, her haunting melodies are deadly.

Gameplay-wise? Expect some unique mechanics revolving around music notes—possibly involving timing or dispelling to avoid brutal debuffs. She’s got strong tech or debuff-oriented vibes, and her design is nothing short of mesmerizing. If Sharon ever becomes a playable unit, fans will go wild.

Guarding a forbidden zone forged by Le Blitz, Astarte isn’t here to play nice. She’s vicious, territorial, and absolutely unhinged. The trailer shows off multiple elemental phases, suggesting she’ll evolve throughout the fight—bringing new mechanics and probably some serious pain as you climb in difficulty.

Her domain appears water-themed, but don’t be fooled—she’s as cold and sadistic as they come. Anyone who dares look at her wrong? Instantly marked as a threat. We’re talking pure villain energy, and we love it.

Here’s where things get deep. Lindell is one of the 13 Executioners of the RCs, and if that doesn’t get your lore senses tingling, nothing will. She was killed and resurrected through a mysterious data-fusion process, now existing as a hybrid between life and data.

What’s wild is that there’s a playable character clearly based on her, which hints at exciting crossover potential. Lindell also ties into the mysterious “Data Angel Plan,” possibly setting up future story arcs and boss reveals. If she’s this intense, what about the other 12 Executioners?

Whitney might look the most “normal” at first glance, but her time-manipulating gimmick is anything but basic. One of the youngest scientists involved in the Leits Life Project, she got lost in a spiral of time while chasing mechanical perfection.

With clock-themed swords and a backstory involving the fusion of “god crystals” and the “zero core,” she’s the embodiment of tragic brilliance. Expect gimmicks like time stops, delayed actions, or rewinding mechanics. JoJo fans, rejoice—this one might be your favorite.

XD Entertainment isn’t just dropping challenging bosses—they’re showering players with resources and freebies right out of the gate. Whether you’re new or a returning player, the early game looks extremely rewarding.

7-Day Login Event – 40 Free Pulls

That’s right—just for logging in, you’ll get 5 gacha tickets per day, with 10 on the final day. That’s 40 free pulls in one week. This system was present in CBT1 and is making a return for CBT3, with a high chance of showing up at global launch.

Free SSR Characters: Lian & Lingluo

• Lian is your first guaranteed SSR, and reaching Chapter 10-4 even gets you a free skin variant.
• Lingluo, a healer/support-type SSR, is unlockable by completing daily trial tasks over 7 days.

Variant Skins – Just for Playing!

Cosmetic lovers rejoice—Etheria: Restart is giving out variant skins for characters like Lian and Gray just for progressing. Unlike many gacha titles that put color swaps behind paywalls, here you’re rewarded for gameplay. Expect four free skins from various events including PvP and milestones.

One of the most game-changing features launching with CBT3 is “Alternate Reconstruction.” Players can fully reset a built alternate ability unit—restoring invested resources like photos, materials, and ether coins.

The first reset is free. After that, it costs premium currency (Hydra Crystals), with the price increasing slightly each time. While enhancement materials don’t get refunded, this system is huge for experimentation and new player flexibility. We love to see it.

From first-time chapter clears to daily spin-the-wheel events, Etheria: Restart is layering in resource fountains for early players. Some highlights:

• Spin Event: Loop-based resource gacha with daily access and its own shop.
• Bounty Tasks: Boss zone clears and trial milestones offer big rewards.
• Account Level Rewards: Hit milestones like Level 15, 20, 30 for gear boxes, SSR upgrade items, premium currency, and even more skins.

Gacha players, take note:

• Guaranteed SSR at 40 pulls on the beginner banner. That’s right—you will get a high-rarity unit fast.
• Focus Banners for characters like Xiada, Tiamat, Heinrich, and Massiah—allowing targeted summoning instead of total RNG.
• Kloss & Massiah both appear on separate rate-up banners with 100-pull guarantees.
• New Light/Dark Banner added—featuring its own exclusive ticket type and pool of characters.

This kind of transparency and accessibility is rare. If Etheria keeps this up at launch, it’s going to be a standout in the gacha space.

From challenge bosses with jaw-dropping lore to a generous free-to-play structure that respects your time, Etheria: Restart is shaping up to be something truly special. The devs are clearly listening, testing, and pushing features that players have been begging for in other gacha games for years.

CBT3 is almost here—and if you’re lucky enough to get in, you’re in for a treat. And if not? Keep an eye on the launch because Etheria: Restart might just be your next obsession.
