Rosentica's multiplayer roguelike RPG, Freya: The Starfall, is about to enter its first closed beta test (CBT-A) on May 24 at 10 PM EST. The two-week testing phase will feature a high-stakes competition with over $100,000 in prizes, including a $30,000 reward for the top player.
Here's all you need to know about the CBT-A event, how to take part, and what makes Freya: The Starfall one of the most talked-about upcoming titles in web3.
Freya's CBT-A gives players a first real taste of its AI-powered strategy experience in Adventure Mode. This mode pushes participants through the chaotic Starfall Festival, a dynamic gauntlet where randomized gear, evolving ideologies, and emergent conflicts define every run.
The beta starts on May 24 at 10 PM EST and will run for two weeks, with players competing for a massive pool of USDC rewards:
Every player will start with the same resources to ensure a fair and strategic battleground.
To enter CBT-A, players must redeem an access key starting May 21. There are two main ways to get in:
In this beta, players will assemble a squad of mercenaries, made up of AI-driven characters with unique skills, personalities, and storylines. Each character brings 4 randomized combat skills and 5 attributes to the table, shaped by player choices and gameplay history.
According to the team, combat is expected to be tactical and demanding. Your success will rely on your ability to adapt and plan ahead. Twists of Fate, flexible talent trees, and procedurally generated gear will constantly push you to rethink your strategy.
Freya: The Starfall is built by Japanese multimedia studio Rosentica, which combines roguelike gameplay with an evolving narrative system powered by AI. The game's visual direction is spearheaded by legendary artist Sangsoo Jeong (League of Legends, Diablo), giving it a cinematic, emotional quality rarely seen in the web3 genre.
Each member of your team comes with a unique set of traits, beliefs, and personal history. These AI-driven characters react to your choices, build relationships with one another, and even shift their ideologies over time.
There are multiple game modes in Freya that offer different types of challenges.
Adventure Mode is where the roguelike heart of the game beats the strongest. Here, players guide their squad through a series of procedurally generated encounters. Each run can lead to permanent changes in the storyline, affecting not only outcomes but the mindset and loyalty of your crew.
Clash Mode focuses on PvP competition. In this mode, you'll build a team and take on others in tactical showdowns, testing your ability to construct synergies and counter enemy strategies.
Voyage Mode, on the other hand, offers a more reflective pace. It's designed for players who want to dive deeper into the lore of Starfall Haven, uncovering the world's history, factions, and philosophical divides through exploration.
