Elyon takes place in a high fantasy steampunk world where machines and magic rule and everyone is dependent on flight to explore, travel, and conquer. In search of a new home, adventurers take to the skies using a wide selection of airships, vehicles, and flying mounts to traverse Elyon’s open, highly vertical world.

Vehicles and mounts in Elyon serve more than just the purpose of transportation; they will also provide adventurers with the ultimate battle experience― Elyon’s Realm vs Realm PvP mode. In RvR, factions fight for fame and glory, taking turns to lead offensive and defensive efforts using all kinds of flying vehicles. Players can also join the fight from the ground with mechs and anti-air artillery to fight airborne threats―or initiate ground based aerial attacks depending on the map and strategy. Various strategic weapons such as cannons, mines, and attack buffs are at each faction’s disposal to tip the balance in their favour. The combination of ground-based and aerial combat makes each fight challenging and dynamic.

Most of Elyon’s content is highly customizable, allowing players to tailor detailed aspects of their play experience and unleash their creativity. An airship, for instance, can have its type, appearance, color, and performance modified. Players can even create their own quests, alter their hunting grounds, and change the difficulty when battling monsters in dungeons or hunting areas.

Kakao Games and Bluehole Studio have announced that Elyon will be getting its first beta opportunity in North America, Europe, and Oceania with the upcoming playtest.

Applications are open from April 13-25 with the closed beta period running from May 6-10.

During the test, you will be able to experience a wide spectrum of content spanning from Realm vs Realm, Clan Wars, and Arenas, to dungeons, lifeskills, and world quests.

Over the past few years Elyon (formerly known as A:IR) has gone through vast changes in many parts of its gameplay experience, from leveling flow adjustments to the conversion of the combat into an action-based system. While Bluehole Studio are continuously working on making Elyon a great MMORPG, Kakao Games are preparing at an ever-increasing pace to release the game outside of Korea and are excited to hear players' feedback!

Those interested can apply for the closed beta by filling out a simple survey on the official website. Those selected for the will be notified separately via email. 

Even if you are not selected during the application phase, you will still have plenty of opportunities to secure CBT1 access through various events and promotions. Additionally, all selected applicants will not only automatically receive access to CBT1, but can also invite one friend via a key included in the confirmation email.
