KRAFTON announced on the 28th that it is recruiting testers for 'Project ZETA', an action AOS game currently under development by Nirvana-na Studio. The company plans to complete the game through user participation by adopting an 'open development' approach.

Project ZETA is an action AOS game where 15 players, divided into five teams of three, compete for an object called 'Prism' on the battlefield. The game emphasizes split-second decision-making and teamwork over aiming skills, and features a 20-minute average playtime and 'Prism play' to increase combat frequency. It is expected to support cross-play between PC and consoles.

The community test will be held via the Steam platform starting on the 4th of next month. Anyone who enjoys the AOS genre or strategic action games can apply for participation through the official Project ZETA pre-registration page.

A key feature of this test is the introduction of the 'open development' method. Nirvana-na Studio has allowed gamers to freely test the game and share gameplay footage or broadcast it without any non-disclosure agreements (NDAs). The development team stated that they plan to transparently disclose test results and reflect feedback to complete the game together with the gamers.

Nirvana-na CEO Kim Nam-seok stated, "This community test reflects Nirvana-na's development philosophy of completing the game alongside gamers. We will listen closely to the voices of gamers and work together to create a new standard for action AOS. We ask for your participation and support."

Starting with this community test, Project ZETA aims to improve its quality with a goal of a global Early Access release in the second half of this year. Detailed information regarding the test schedule and participation methods can be found on the pre-registration page and the official Discord channel.
