Greeting, Hero-Sama! Morning, noon, or night—whenever you’re reading this, the land of Oz is calling you back!
We’re kicking off a brand-new public test on August 27th at 05:00(UTC+0)/August 26th at 22:00(Pacific Time)!
The test will run for two whole weeks, so grab your gear (and your curiosity) and come hang out in the game again~
It’s been half a year since the last test, and we’ve been super busy during that time. Tons of optimizations, bug fixes, polish, and yes… some highly requested features are finally here.
The highlight this time? Your AI partners just got way smarter! They’ll listen more closely, adventure more naturally, and even let you know what they need from you!
Oh, and did we mention… Oz is now a real continent!
With a borderless, procedurally generated map, you and your unique AI partners can set off on a brand-new adventure that’s truly your own.
