The highly-anticipated gacha title Neverness to Everness is set to launch globally on 29 April 2026.
Hotta Studio’s upcoming supernatural urban gacha game finally has a release date, nearly two years after its initial reveal. Neverness to Everness (NTE) is confirmed for a global launch on 29 April 2026.
NTE’s global release is notably scheduled just a week after its China launch, which many commenters assume will allow Hotta Studio to address bugs and local feedback before rolling out patches to worldwide users.
If you’ve previously searched for its release date, you may be confused by an earlier rumoured window. Two weeks ago, a moderator on the NTE Discord server suggested a May launch, which aligned with dates listed on the game’s iOS App Store page. However, that was likely a placeholder, as the official release has now been confirmed to roll out a month earlier.
Neverness to Everness (NTE) expected to bring competition to the gacha market
In the heavily-saturated gacha market, NTE has already stood out thanks to its distinctive supernatural theme and promised elements reminiscent of GTA and Forza–featuring seamless open-world exploration and the ability to drive through an urban setting in first-person view.
Expectations are high, though some scepticism remains, as the game comes from Hotta Studio, the developer behind Tower of Fantasy. The studio became notorious for that game’s troubled launch and subsequent lacklustre updates, which led to a sharp decline in its player base. Early on, fans questioned whether NTE could live up to its ambitious promises. Over time, however, the project has appeared more promising, with beta testers offering positive feedback.
Confidence has grown further following Hotta Studio’s transparent update roadmap, which outlines current shortcomings and planned improvements–including enhanced character detail and animations, new main story episodes, multiplayer feature improvements, and more.
As is standard within the gacha genre, NTE will be free-to-play. Multi-platform pre-registration is now open for Android, iOS, Windows PC, and PlayStation 5, with the game also set to release on Mac.
