Kakao GamesYou can now signup on the Chrono Odyssey Steam Page to be included in the MMORPG’s upcoming closed beta test (CBT) or playtest.
Chrono Odyssey has been in development for several years by developer Chrono Games and is gearing up for a global launch from publisher Kakao Games in Q4 of 2025 for both PC and consoles. There’s no known date for the CBT or its actual launch just yet, but we should know more very soon.
In an investor call last year, the South Korea-based publisher stated Chrono Odyssey is slated for that Q4 2025 release window and re-confirmed the timeframe earlier this week, continuing to indicate a global launch on consoles and PC.
Details are still a bit scarce on Chrono Odyssey, but everything we’ve seen and heard so far seem to point towards this being a very graphically demanding “next-generation” MMORPG built in Unreal Engine 5, perhaps similar to the likes of other upcoming MMOs like Aion 2.

Chrono Odyssey is expected to feature fast-paced action combat, similar in concept to the likes of Black Desert Online from what we’ve seen, which was originally published by Kakao Games before they handed over rights to the game’s developer, Pearl Abyss. Kakao has also been involved with games like ArcheAge and Path of Exile.
Conceptually, Chrono Odyssey will deal heavily with themes of time manipulation, as the name implies. Players will be able to stop and rewind time around themselves and around monsters during combat and even to explore past generations of the world around you. Structurally, the game’s expected to have a large and “seamless” open world concept according to the developers.
Everything else we’ve heard about Chrono Odyssey seems to mostly be what you’d expect for a new MMORPG in 2025. There will be harvesting and crafting, there will be detailed character customization options, there will be group-based PvE content such as dungeons and raiding as well as PvP areas, and so on.
Consider signing up for the Chrono Odyssey CBT over on the game’s Steam page if you want to have a chance to check it out for yourself.
