Krafton and developer 5minlab have announced the first global community test for their online multiplayer game, Project ZETA. The test was conducted from June 25 to June 28, targeting players worldwide, including those in South Korea, North America, and Europe. Interested players were able to participate by signing up through the Steam store page.

Project ZETA is a multi-team tactical arena game where four teams of three compete on the battlefield. Unlike traditional PvP games that follow a symmetrical two-team format, this title adopts a multi-team structure where several squads compete simultaneously on a single map. The objective is to be the first team to deposit a 'Prism' object at a designated point to secure victory.

Combat is presented in a third-person action format utilizing unique character skills, combining PvE progression with PvP battles in a single arena. The test featured 14 characters across four classes and included support for controller inputs. The developers also plan to support cross-play between PC and console platforms in the future.

The title is being developed using an 'open development' model, where the game is built alongside the community. The developer intends to incorporate the gameplay data and feedback gathered from global players during the test into the future development process. Nam-seok Kim, CEO of 5minlab, stated, "We will complete Project ZETA together based on the feedback from players in more regions."

The game is aiming for a global Early Access launch in the second half of this year.
