Netmarble looks to be moving fast when it comes to Overprime. A closed beta for the game is scheduled from January 22 to January 23. To get the details of this upcoming beta, players need to add the game to their wishlist on Steam. There's also the choice to learn about it through the Discord channel.
The announcement of the closed beta was made on the official YouTube page of Overprime along with the Instagram account of Rina. Rina is a virtual influencer as well as a content creator developed by Metaverse Entertainment, a division under Netmarble.
In a post, Netmarble revealed that the goal of the closed beta is to have stable gameplay. To make this happen, developers need users to test and send feedback.
Netmarble is known for developing and releasing mobile games. Overprime is their first foray for PC. It's a MOBA game and has two teams of heroes fighting for dominance. Players can choose from a roster of heroes divided into classes, such as Fighter, Support, Damage Dealer, Caster, Tank, and Assassin. Each hero has five unique skills, and as of this writing, 13 heroes have been revealed.
