NCsoft released a teaser today (the 7th) for 'Astrae Oratio', a new title currently under development by Dynamis1.

'Astrae Oratio' is a new title currently under development by Dynamis1 following the cancellation of Project KV. In January of this year, NCsoft invested in the project with the aim of expanding its publishing business and secured the publishing rights. Since then, the game has embarked on a full-scale journey, opening its official website and social media on April 30 and introducing itself as a "New Mystery" magic RPG centered on magic and administration. The teaser released today introduced the worldview and background of "Astrae Oratio." "Astrae Oratio" is set in Tokyo in 1889, where the pace of development has accelerated compared to conventional history due to unique phenomena, including magic. While the introduction on the website mentions Tokyo Tower and Odaiba, the teaser image shows a city resembling modern Tokyo, conveying the atmosphere of the New Mystery genre where modern daily life and ideals coexist. In addition, the teaser introduces the user as a chief of the Special Economic Zone Authority and hints at the world to be encountered by presenting keywords related to the world of wizards. In particular, given that the forces of wizards located in each ward of Tokyo, 'Glaze' (the means for wizards to use magic), 'Trial by Combat' (to resolve disputes among wizards), and 'Artifacts' (wizards' weapons) have been mentioned, it appears that the user, acting as a Special District Office Chief, will resolve conflicts between these factions and confront another crisis hidden behind the scenes. Detailed information about 'Astrae Oratio' can be found on the official website. data-nid="13">
