Regional differences matter for codes and balance: China vs global version.

Which platforms are supported?

Dawnbreaker closed beta (December 2026)

According to the November 9 Games Press announcement: PC dedicated launcher, PlayStation and Xbox Series X, iOS (TestFlight), and Android. Console builds join global testing for the first time. This is a subset of the eventual launch footprint.

Planned global launch platforms

The Games Press post does not list retail launch storefronts; it only names test platforms. For the full launch picture, Gematsu and Pixels in Orbit report:

  • PS5 (including Pro), Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, and a NetEase dedicated launcher
  • iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play)
  • Xbox Cloud Gaming and ROG Xbox Ally X (reported—treat as secondary unless repeated on an official post)

Platform matrix: Dawnbreaker CBT uses Games Press PlayStation and Xbox Series X wording; planned launch adds PS5 incl. Pro and Xbox Series X|S per Gematsu and Pixels in Orbit

Hardware planning: system requirements (Steam sheet plus older Wanderer Test tables).

Languages at launch

The Steam store page (November 10, 2026) lists full audio in English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese, with interface and subtitles in eight languages including Traditional Chinese, Korean, Latin American Spanish, French, and German. Pixels in Orbit reported a similar split in November 9 coverage.

What is free-to-play and what is monetized?

The Steam page lists Free To Play and In-App Purchases in Features (with Steam Achievements, Stats, and Family Sharing). A February 2026 TechRadar interview with creative director Alfie (reported) mentions gacha-style characters, cosmetics, and a paid battle pass, with a stated design goal to avoid pay-to-win. Exact rates are not published—see gacha and monetization.

How does Dawnbreaker fit the roadmap?

Dawnbreaker is the December 2026 global closed beta, not the commercial launch. It adds consoles and mobile to testing and scales up from Wanderer. Full shared-world multiplayer is planned after launch per the announcement, not inside this test.

Sign-up path: pre-registration rewards and how to join the closed beta. For combat loops from the February test, how it plays stays clearly labeled as Wanderer-era coverage.

When NetEase announces a concrete global date, we will update this page, the home timeline, and the Steam citation in the same edit.
