New Features Are Coming to Sea of Remnants
NetEase Games is giving Sea of Remnants a major content boost with the upcoming Dawnbreaker Closed Beta Test (CBT), set to begin on December 3 at 16:00 PT. Developed by Joker Studio, the free-to-play turn-based roguelike is getting 21 playable characters, two new sea regions, fresh quests, additional ships, and a challenging new game mode.
For the first time, PlayStation and Xbox Series X players can join the action alongside PC, iOS, and Android users. Pre-downloads begin on December 1 at 12:00 UTC, but there’s a catch: access is limited and granted on a first-come, first-served basis. So, players interested in jumping aboard should get ready early.

One of the biggest additions is the expanded character roster, which features 21 playable characters, including the Traveler. Players can experiment with different team combinations, build strategies around pursuit attacks or area-of-effect damage, and fine-tune their characters to handle tougher encounters.
There’s also more ocean to explore. The White Sea and Bridge Sea open up new areas filled with Journey and Roaming Quests. Players can choose between two starting ships, the Fireworks Wanderer and Drift Bottle, each offering a different naval combat style. Meanwhile, the new Peril Theatre challenge is perfect for those who want to put their team-building skills to the test.
NetEase has also released a new story concept trailer, Embers, teasing the political conflicts, fallen kingdoms, and rival ambitions shaping the game’s world. Casual activities such as Lucky Duel and Goose Chess will also return for the test.
With more characters to recruit, new waters to explore, and tougher battles to overcome, the Dawnbreaker CBT is shaping up to be a worthwhile adventure for Sea of Remnants fans. December can’t come soon enough for aspiring captains.
