CHRONO ODYSSEY CLOSED BETA NOW LIVE ON STEAM THROUGH JUNE 22

Players can finally enter Setera in the highly anticipated first Closed Beta test

SEOUL, South Korea – June 20, 2025 – The wait is over. Kakao Games and Chrono Studio today officially launched the first-ever Closed Beta for Chrono Odyssey, the time-bending MMORPG redefining the genre. Available exclusively on PC via Steam, the Closed Beta will run from June 20 at 00:00 PST through June 22 at 23:59 PST.


Hot on the heels of the Summer Game Fest Trailer and the Gameplay Walkthrough video, this beta offers thousands of anxious players a chance to experience Chrono Odyssey for the first time, and to help the development of the world’s most anticipated MMORPG.


Unfolding across a limited playable region of Setera, the beta gives players their first hands-on opportunity to explore the game's immersive world, wield time-manipulating combat powers, and battle the cosmic forces threatening reality.


"Setera is alive, fractured, and ready for its Sentinels,” said Sangtae Yoon, executive producer of Chrono Odyssey. “This beta is more than a technical test—it's a moment for players to shape the future of Chrono Odyssey. We're honored to begin that journey together today.”


Steam Closed Beta – June 20 to June 22, 2025
For these 72 hours, players will be able to experience a fraction of what the final game will contain. Including:

 
  • Diverse combat and powerful class abilities across 3 of the game’s 6 launch classes
  • The Fractured Realm of Setera, from medieval landscapes to post-apocalyptic ruins.
  • Time-manipulation mechanics that reshape exploration and combat
  • Dungeon and world quest battles that showcase strategic group mechanics
  • Open-world exploration and immersive life content like gathering, crafting, and fishing
  • 1:1 tactical PvE experiences via Chrono Gates which offer players precision-based solo challenges

We are set to begin distributing keys in stages starting from the 19th, closely monitoring server conditions throughout the process. This phased approach ensures stability and optimal performance as demand increases. We'll be continually adding new players to the test as long as the server stability is maintained. The Closed Beta supports localized servers and welcomes global participation, with feedback channels open via Discord and official community channels.
