Neverness to Everness Welcomes Players Back With New Content for ‘Co-Ex Test’ in 2026

Registration Open Now on PC and PlayStation 5 Ahead of Upcoming Closed Beta

BEIJING, China (February 6, 2026) | Hethereau is open once again! NTE (Neverness to Everness), Perfect World Games and Hotta Studio’s ambitious, urban open-world RPG, is open to players for its latest closed beta, the ‘Co-Ex Test’, on PC and PlayStation®5. In addition, Perfect World Games is thrilled to announce that pre-registration for the iOS and Android versions of NTE is now also open.

While registration for the Co-Ex Test on PC and PS5 is now closed, there’s still a chance for aspiring anomaly hunters to get in on the action. By participating in Twitch Drops livestreams and linking their Perfect World Games account, viewers can watch their favourite streamers explore Hethereau — and also have a chance of being picked for test access!



New features unlocked in the Co-Ex Test include:

Crime Mechanics: Committing illegal acts in the city increases your wanted level, which may lead to police pursuit! After being captured, players will be sent to the detention center, where they can either work to repay their debt to society…or attempt to break out!

Driving and Modifications: New vehicle models have been added, including muscle cars, supercars, and motorbikes! Character companion and ride animations have also been updated, along with a new first-person POV setting. New vehicle actions include honking horns and jumping off your vehicle, while vehicles themselves are also now susceptible to popped tires, knockbacks, damage and…explosions! There have also been updates to general handling and physics, and additional modification options have been unlocked.

New Urban Gameplay Mechanics: City life is more immersive than ever! Players can engage in activities like fishing, earning money as a taxi driver, racing, playing Mahjong and rhythm games, working at coffee shops, and taking part in the new Pink Paws Heist to plunder resources.
Protagonist and Main Character Outfits: New urban outfits are available for players to dress up the protagonist and main characters. Each is designed in a minimalist style that emphasizes sleek, practical fashion without flowing cloth or ribbons, offering a fresh, modern look that fits the city’s vibrant atmosphere.
