The gameplay video concluded with a surprising announcement, confirming that The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin will be released worldwide in January 2026. 

A PS5 pre-order package is now available on the PlayStation Store, featuring in-game items such as Draw Tickets, Hero Upgrade Materials, and Weapon Upgrade Materials.

Combat in The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin revolves around each hero’s use of three different weapons, allowing for a wide variety of playstyles. To make battles even more strategic and dynamic, our team has been developing the Tag Skills and Burst System, which further expand on these combat styles.

Tag Skills are activated when switching heroes and consume a Tag Gauge that fills through normal attacks and skill use. These skills are not just for dealing damage. They are designed to be used strategically in a variety of combat situations, such as countering specific boss patterns or providing buffs to allies. By incorporating these mechanics, we aim to deliver a fast-paced and immersive combat experience.

The Burst System is a key feature designed to enhance synergy between elemental attributes and hero combinations. In <The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin>, each weapon grants its own elemental attribute, and the Burst System plays a central role in utilizing these attributes during combat.

The Burst Gauge builds up by landing consecutive attacks with the same element, and once activated, it unleashes unique effects depending on the element used. We are currently refining this system to further emphasize the elemental identity of each hero and weapon, and to encourage a wide variety of strategic team compositions based on elemental synergy that we cannot wait to share with you.

The combat systems introduced above are being developed as key elements in the diverse boss battles you will encounter in The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin.

In addition to Tag Skills and the Burst Gauge, each boss will feature unique combat mechanics and distinct strategy points, offering a wide range of tactical approaches and enjoyable challenges.

The Red Demon uses powerful area-of-effect attacks and dangerous patterns, but with well-timed Tag Skills, you can interrupt its strikes and create opportunities to counterattack.

The Gray Demon takes to the skies after a certain period of time, launching airborne assaults. However, using specific heroes’ Adventure Skills, you can shoot it down, leaving it stunned and giving you the upper hand in battle.

Albion leverages its massive size in a three-phase encounter that cannot be overcome through simple attacks and dodging alone. Victory lies in utilizing environmental elements that appear during the fight to disable the boss and strike at its core on the chest.

As you can see, combat in The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin is designed to encourage strategic play using Tag Skills and the Burst system to overcome the unique patterns and mechanics of each boss. We are continually refining these features to deliver an even more dynamic and engaging battle experience.

Mobile pre-registration and CBT sign-ups are currently underway. By pre-registering, you can receive the character ‘Tioreh,’ the Skyborne Gale Dual Swords Weapon10 Draw Tickets, as well as a variety of growth materials and Gold. The Closed Beta Test will be the very first opportunity to experience the core content of The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin and share your valuable feedback with us.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin is coming to PS5, PC (Steam) and mobile on January 28, 2026.
