NC showcased its new title 'Astrae Oratio' and held its first public playable demo at Tokyo Game Show 2026, a gaming expo held in Tokyo, Japan, from September 17 to 21. NC set up a dedicated Astrae Oratio booth at this year's Tokyo Game Show, bringing the game's world to life in an offline space to welcome visitors.
According to NC, on September 17, the opening day of the event, crowds of visitors flocked to the dedicated booth to try out the demo, generating intense interest with average wait times exceeding one hour. NC plans to refine the game's quality through feedback from Tokyo Game Show and an upcoming Closed Beta Test (CBT) before launching it globally in 2027.
'Astrae Oratio' is a Shindenki magic RPG published by NC and developed by Dynamis One. The Shindenki genre refers to a narrative style in Japanese pop culture that blends reality with mythology and supernatural themes; this title similarly highlights fantasy elements alongside a character-driven narrative.
Astrae Oratio is currently accepting applications for its CBT until noon on September 21. Selected participants will be able to join the test on Android and iOS devices, with specific CBT dates to be announced later.
