ASTRA: Knights of Veda Begins Global Pre-registration

HYBE IM :

Seoul, South Korea, March 5th, 2024 - Publisher HYBE IM and developer FLINT are excited to announce that pre-registration is now open for MORPG ASTRA: Knights of Veda following last week's surprise reveal and teaser trailer. A captivating medieval fantasy adventure awaits players when ASTRA: Knights of Veda launches on Steam, iOS, and Android in April this year; now, players can begin their journey early by signing up for pre-registration, where multiple rewards are available. Check out the pre-registration trailer, showcasing the captivating world of ASTRA and its characters, as well as the tactical and stylish combat gameplay that awaits players.

Adventurers who sign up during the pre-registration phase will receive a Launch Support Box filled with goodies, including the enchanting Mist Deer Necklace and magical Mist Deer Ring. Additional store rewards will be offered to give those answering the call to save the realm of Planis a deserved boost in their quest.

Developed by FLINT over the course of six years, ASTRA: Knights of Veda provides a fresh take on classic beat ’em up and side-scrolling combat. Players can fight the forces of evil alone or raise the banners and gather other knights to rally behind the cause in team-based combat to rid Planis of undead hordes and monstrous beasts, finally freeing it from under the rule of the tyrannical King Magnus. ASTRA: Knights of Veda, with its dark yet enchanting art style, puts an emphasis on the story and immersion through over 1,800 high-quality cutscenes. 

Showcased by HYBE at Gamescom in the summer of 2023, anticipation for the game has only grown, as marked by its ranking among Steam’s most-played games during its first global beta test in October 2023. 

Starting from March 5, players can pre-register on Google Play and the Apple App Store and also wishlist the game on Steam. If ASTRA: Knights of Veda achieves 1 million pre-registrations, the developers will provide additional benefits and rewards to the players.

To mark the start of the global pre-registration as a landmark point in the game’s development, HYBE IM has released a video where artists from HYBE made a special appearance and congratulated ASTRA: Knights of Veda’s global pre-registration.

Check out the official YouTube channel for more detailed information on ASTRA: Knights of Veda, the social links for more information on the pre-registration, and to watch the videos.   The ASTRA: Knights of Veda OST ‘Goddess of Despair’ is available to listen to now on all major streaming platforms.
