'Elyon' Kicks Off 2nd Closed Beta With Twitch Drop and More - Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 18, 2021 @ 3:55 p.m. PDT

Set in a world of magical technology and unlimited potential, Elyon is an MMORPG that has you compete in fierce faction wars, take on challenging group combat and features advanced character build options.

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 has launched the 2nd Closed Beta (CBT2) for Elyon, which will run from August 18-23 ahead of its Fall 2021 release in North America, Europe and Oceania. 

CBT2 participants can expect a build more closely aligned with its Korean counterpart, with features not available in CBT1. Some of those features include the addition of the powerful Slayer Class, updated Mana Awakening skills, improved game service platform and infrastructure for Western market players, easier leveling, solo and multiplayer dungeon play, and more. 

In celebration of the CBT2 debut, Kakao Games has also established a series of Twitch Drops, which those who have not yet applied can use to gain access to CBT2 directly. Players who link a Kakao Games account with their Twitch account and participate in Elyon streams will receive: 

  • CBT2 Access after 1 hour of viewing (CBT2 only)
  • Chick (Pet) after 3 hours of viewing (CBT2 only)
  • 3,000 + 100 Ruby Box after 5 hours of viewing (CBT2 only)
  • Jet Board A mount after 7 hours of viewing (for official launch)

Amongst the events prepared for CBT2 will be a character customization contest, the winners of which will see their designs added as presets on the character creation screen. 

Those who pre-order Elyon (official website or Steam) will enjoy exclusive pre-order rewards, guaranteed CBT2 access and a 24-hour head start on release. By purchasing Additional Packages users will be able to secure up to a 72-hour head start, an exclusive weapon, and an exclusive armor set.

Key Features:

  • Extensive character customization: Create your own unique character with extensive customization tools and detail-oriented options. Want to go the extra mile? Take your look to the next level with the Equipment Dye system.
  • Deep skill customization: Modify the way your skills and character respond with Skill Attributes, Rune Attributes, and Mana Awakening.
  • Realm vs Realm battles: Engage in large scale Realm vs Realm battles with the assistance of heavy artillery, mechas, and dragons!
  • Clan Wars: Compete with other clans and establish yourself as the best of the best. Top clans get to control Dimensional Portals and collect taxes from any player that enters them.
  • Gather, craft, and trade: Make your own high grade equipment and other consumables that will aid you in battle. Have unused materials? You can sell them via Trading and make a profit!
  • Open-world PvP: Players of opposing Realms can attack each other anywhere in the world. When in conflict zones, players can claim Laurel Wreaths of Greed, allowing them to attack any player be it enemy or ally - but the use of such power comes with dire risks.
  • Dungeons, Arenas and Dimensional Portals: Enjoy a variety of PvP and PvE content, from classic 1vs1 to Free For All arenas, to dungeons filled with clever mechanics. Dimensional Portals will lead you to planes of rich resources that will help you become stronger.

Elyon is coming to PC (Steam) on September 29, 2021.
