Today I’m going to give you guys a quick breakdown of Elyon: Ascent Infinite Realm. Keep in mind, this is only a look at the first Closed Beta test! We have every intention of delving deeper into the things that will and may differ as things proceed.

Kakao were a little vague when it came to discussing the release date, however they did confirm a third quarter timeframe for the second Closed Beta test, with a full release in the fourth quarter of 2021.

The amount of things you can do in this game is fairly endless. Heck, there are even mini-games you can participate in in the open world. So if you’re looking for something to do, this might be it. Moving forward though, do note that the first Closed Beta test does not have the most current build for the game.

For potential players interested in playing Elyon upon release, do note that this game will be buy-to-play, so that is something to consider. Though I can tell you now that I had a lot of fun playing this game. So what do you guys think? Are you excited to play? Hopefully this has helped a few of you considering the game get a better idea of what to expect from this game.

  1. Stix and I got to play in the Closed Beta for ELYON and we had some fun. Today I want to take a bit of your time and break the game down into an easily digestible video of not only the game, but our experience within it.

  2. You guys are the best to get MMO news! Would be so awesome to try out this game.

    Been playing gw2 just got to lvl 80, having so much fun catching up on content there.

    But every other existing mmo hasn’t been appealing as Elyon or new world, or ashes of creation.

  3. Loved Tera when it came out, got pre-order and ran with my Slayer and Mystic. So much fun with the action combat.
    Can't wait for Elyon as it basically looks like Tera 2.0. Just hoping that Elyon is better optimised 😉
    Can you avoid PvP in the game? I prefer just questing and dungeons to PvP … yes … I am a filthy casual in MMOs

  4. She did a great job. Still, our boy speech still seems less forced, like he is speaking without a script while she is. Even though he probably is but it's about the feel.

  5. It was ok in my opinion, felt like there were some limits in some mechanics that will need a p2w escape, kind of worse than BDO (really hope it isn't), finally it feels like a Tera 2021 version.
    PD: Now that I think about it, seems like how mobile games milk money nowadays

  6. In the CBT I tested crafting gear and its limited compared to what you get from dungeons / world drops. The processed materials all crafted items require are rare procs with the base versions of said materials being worthless vendor trash. also crafted gear is classed as breakthrough gear which is not only restricted on how many you can equip based on level (1 at lv35 and I think goes up to 3 by lv45) but said breakthrough gear is destroyed should an enhancement fail and the enhancement protection item doesn't work on breakthrough gear.

    Life skill mastery progression is lazy also. with everything above the base level requiring Expert mastery in the profession, not sure is if the full game in Korea is any different.

    also the enhancement RNG on the surface seems potentially worse than BDO as when you acquire / craft a piece of gear the number of enhancement attempts that item has varies.
    also limiting the number of enhancement attempts an items has with the ability to reset enhancement via a scroll is one hell of a time gate / P2W trap not to mention some of the other stuff.

  7. I've played Elyon in the first CBT1 and I really loved it. It felt so nostalgic to my Tera days. And I've been waiting to play a new MMORPG for so long. It would make me the most happiest in the world if I could get a key for CBT2. I have a bit more experience and I think I could get even further.

  8. This is a PERSONAL review…
    I really dont like Elyon… it was better when was only AIR – Ascent: Infinite Realm at first, totally different from the actual result… because after playing this i cannot take it seriously… this is exactly the same as BDO (Black Desert) but with steampunk environment… is BUY TO PLAY and still having a PAY TO WIN and worse than BDO… is focused in PVP and thats cool, but if you put a game focused in PvP with a cash shop PayToWin… is just not enjoyable for me, a lot of RNG mechanics (Like BnS (Blade and Soul), BDO) and Cash Shop to help your RNG… is not bad the RNG, cause it's for all players, until you put items for real money to make your RNG better… this game has not good graphics compared to another MMOs incoming like SOLO (Swords Of Legends Online) or New World (Amazon MMO)… also the classes are terrible unbalanced and basically if you wanna be good, you need play assassin or slayer and laught about the other players unless they spend more money than you and defeat you for purely p2w… the story and the envoirment is like see a low quality movie of normal people who knows that are being recorded… they dont give any emotion just plain voices extremely uncomfortable that makes that you cannot take that seriously or the history… 0 emotion… Dungeons are just the same of every MMO, nothing different and i rather to play PSO2 (Phantasy Star Online 2) instances more than this dungs, because they are just so linear too, bosses without major machinchs, just go and attack him with some changes to your steam robot… and one of the worst things is how they just pulled apart the aerial battles and now this is like a little part of the game almost irrelevant and no more than that…
    In the other Hand;
    The housing system is quite good, nothing different from other MMO's, less beautifull, but still good and enjoyable.
    The steam robot is Cool to play, not enough good as Lost Ark, but still cool and good optimized.
    The best and the reason to play this is purely combat… playing combat is fun in this game, but if you play BDO still weird… is like play BDO but more slow and with other classes (and still you gonna see a lot of skills and mechanichs that seems a copy of BDO)… and if you play a game for combat, then BDO still better more fast and fluid than this, but the gameplay on this game still enough good and really enjoyable.
    Finally from my opinion, Elyon is not Worth it, they just change this game a lot from his first idea, i guess Kakao was just to scared to do something different and fail, and they end making this game another BDO with other things and some new contents, but still feeling like a BDO with a steampunk world and more p2w… if you check the Korean game, basically this game start with a lot of people, and now this is game diying… losing players ever day… and people playing more games like BDO (at this point looks like Elyon works more like an advertising campaign to make new players in Kakao Games, test it and then go and test and keep playing Black desert, and old players who leave BDO for Elyon, just return to BDO…) because is less p2w and still better than elyon, is like a mediaval good version of elyon (in the eyes of new players).
    This is only my opinion with my crap english, and i know a lot of people can enjoy this game, so go ahead guys, just play this game and make your own conclusions… i really wanted play this game a lot, i even shop the korean version and pay exit lag, but after all my personal experience, i guess i'm going for SOLO, because SOLO is a really awesome game and the only reason why i want Elyon being less good than SOLO because SOLO is alot better, is just because GAMEFORGE… GAMEFORGE is one of the less trusted publishers… but at this point, i dont care… at least they are offering a best game with the "promise" (!!!!!?) of don't make it p2w…

  9. Forced PvP? Hard Pass…VERY Hard Pass. I Spend My MOney,(or Time), On a Game I Will ENJOY Playing, Not Corpse Dragging from Hell to Breakfast. So Extremely Hard Pass…. Sad Too, I was actually Looking Forward to this.

  10. This game looks really really nice and lovely, i hope this will be a game that will never be boring to play. And maybe finding new friends. =)
    Edit: I LOOOVE CHARACTER CREATIONS heavy breathing

  11. Wait, there is no open world pvp opt-out? I guess I'll pass. Ganking induces too much discomfort, bordering in anxiety. Not feelings I associate with enjoyable games. Also wasn't it supposed to release in summer 2021? Now it's Q4? Yeah, right.

  12. This is the laziest developed game I have seen, Assets straight up copied from Tera on an Unreal Engine 3, 14 years old engine. Boring daily quests and leveling experience, clunky combat, limited to 1 dungeon run per day, not to mention the Buy to play with Subscription and P2W items that straight-up buff your stats. I really wanted it to be good but it just isn't, hopefully, the full release will surprise me.
