een set for a 2025 launch. Q2 2024 initially suggested a Q3 2025 launch window, later revised to Q4 in the Q3 2024 report. Kakao Games’ Q1 2025 report in May 2025 reiterated that Chrono Odyssey will arrive in the fourth quarter of this year.

Although the launch timeframe has shifted slightly between reports, the announcement of the closed beta and the increasing marketing efforts suggest that Chrono Studio is on track for a 2025 release without any delays.

Chrono Odyssey beta
The Chrono Odyssey closed beta is scheduled to run from Friday, June 20, 2025, at 12 am PDT / 3 am EDT / 8 am BST until Sunday, June 22, 2025, at 11:59 pm PDT and Monday, June 23, 2025, at 2:59 am EDT / 7:59 am BST.

Chrono Studio posted the beta schedule on Steam, indicating that it will only be available on the North America, Europe, and Asia servers. Despite these server restrictions, players from any location can participate, although latency issues may be a concern if you are far from these servers.

To be part of the beta, interested players can request access on the Chrono Odyssey Steam page and await confirmation. Access is not guaranteed and will be granted gradually starting from June 19 throughout the beta period.

Chrono Odyssey gameplay
Chrono Odyssey is an action MMO similar to Amazon’s New World. At launch, players can select from six classes: Assassin, Berserker, Paladin, Ranger, Sorcerer, and Swordsman. Additionally, there will be 18 different weapon types available, split evenly across all classes. Like New World and Throne & Liberty, players can equip two interchangeable weapons simultaneously to shape their gameplay.

Players must create their characters before embarking on adventures in the vibrant world of Setera. The game offers extensive customization options, allowing players to express their uniqueness. CEO Bae Bong-geon expressed that players can create characters that reflect their personality.

As Sentinels of Setera, players will engage in various world boss battles and large-scale events to combat the spread of corruption. Void Nexuses spawn waves of opponents and bosses that players must defeat to destroy the nexus core.

The time and space elements play a crucial role in the game’s Labyrinths, requiring players to solve puzzles, showcase platforming skills, and react swiftly for rewards.

Fishing is an essential aspect of Chrono Odyssey, one of the many life skills players can explore. From gathering resources to crafting items, players will have numerous activities to engage in.
