Gameplay Overview
Following a global freeze, humanity's survival hinges on uploading consciousness to the digital sanctuary known as Etheria. However, Etheria isn't solely inhabited by humans; it's also home to Animus, beings powered by Anima energy.
Their harmonious coexistence shatters when a disaster known as Genesis corrupts the Animus, turning them hostile. Players become Hyperlinkers, protectors of humanity in this virtual realm, tasked with unraveling Etheria's dark secrets and ensuring everyone's safety.
Powered by Unreal Engine, Etheria: Restart offers turn-based strategic combat with deep team-building mechanics. Experiment with synergies, skill combinations, and strategic thinking to outmaneuver your opponents.
Each Animus boasts a unique Prowess system and nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for extensive customization of combat styles. Engage in thrilling PvP duels or tackle challenging PvE content.
