Gameplay Overview:
Following a global freeze, humanity’s survival hinges on its digital refuge, Etheria. However, this virtual haven is also home to the Animus, beings powered by Anima energy. Their once harmonious coexistence is shattered by the Genesis disaster, corrupting the Animus and turning them against humanity.
Players become Hyperlinkers, defenders of humanity tasked with uncovering Etheria’s dark secrets and restoring peace. Experience turn-based strategy gameplay built with Unreal Engine, offering deep team-building mechanics. Experiment with character synergies, skill combinations, and strategic combat.
Each Animus boasts a unique Prowess system and nearly 100 Ether Module sets, allowing for extensive combat style customization. Engage in thrilling one-on-one PvP duels or tackle challenging PvE content.
