Co-CEO Byung-moo Park stated that Astrae Oratio<\/strong>, the long-awaited magic live-service RPG by Dynamis One, will be leading the charge and is expected to launch in the first quarter of next year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked about how confident NC is in Astrae Oratio\u2019s success, Park mentioned some details about the game\u2019s global closed beta test (CBT), which took place from October 2 to 6. The day-one retention rate\u00a0for the CBT was over 90%. According to Park, this represents a top metric among games NC has publicly tested.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, a previous CBT report<\/a> reveals that the total playtime of all participants amounted to roughly 79,515 hours, with a two-day login streak rate of 80%. General reception to the beta was also positive, with 93% of participants expressing their desire to play the game when it releases.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the global CBT, NC plans to incorporate player feedback regarding game balance and difficulty scaling in preparation for next year\u2019s launch. Since these aspects can be addressed in a relatively short time frame, the company does not forsee any major issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
