- 7DS: Origin's global CBT has officially ended
- Received extremely positive feedback
- Netmarble will continue to work on UI/UX.
It's not every day that a beta ends with fans practically waving banners in celebration of launch day, but that's where The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin finds itself. Netmarble has shut down global closed beta testingand if you've already been eagerly awaiting the RPG's January release, the early numbers suggest you're not alone.
While most of us are still re-watching G-STAR's demo videos, the team has been busy watching the mountain of rave reviews. 93% of participating players said they plan to join when the full game releases. That's an absurdly high number for a global beta built around an open-world RPG with a multiverse, tag-based combat, and fiery cinematic skill animations.
Lucky visitors were able to see the spectacle live at G-STAR 2025, where the hands-on demonstration drew long lines and even more social media posts. A recurring theme emerged throughout the experience: aside from the flashy combat, the world feels alive.
Many testers noted how the open fields, character interactions, and anime-realistic graphics work together in a way that in Britain feels like you've stepped straight into the source material. For an IP with 55 million manga copies sold, this is exactly the energy we wanted.
Of course, no beta is perfect, and Netmarble has already confirmed UI/UX improvements and general refinements based on suggestions. But the tone of the reviews, especially the love for co-op exploration, group switching, and combo skills, makes it abundantly clear that Origin is shaping up to be the studio's next heavy hitter.
The Seven Deadly Sins: Origins will be released worldwide on January 28, 2026. for iOS and Android in 12 languages. Until we get there, you can browse our list best RPG games on iOS to keep you at bay!
