Yostar’s new cross-platform RPG, Stella Sora, kicked off its limited beta test on May 28, running for 11 days.

Test Details

Test Period: May 28, 8:00 PM (UTC-7) – June 8, midnight (UTC-7)
Test Type: Limited accounts, no in-game purchases, and all data will be wiped after.
Test Platforms PC (Windows) and Android.

Customizable Appearance

When you start, you pick a look to represent yourself in the story. You can tweak it later, and it’ll change how characters’ artwork and dialogue refer to you.

Meet the Trekkers

In the beta, you can recruit up to 20 Traveler Maidens, each with their own fighting style. You’ll unlock special artwork, memories, and personal stories for them.

Note: Chinese and Japanese voiceovers are in, but some Live2D animations might not be fully polished. Thanks for bearing with it. Personal stories and visuals might change in the final game.

Preview Chapters

The beta unlocks Chapters 1 and 2 of the main story, with some parts featuring Chinese and Japanese voiceovers. Keep in mind, what you see here isn’t the final version—text and effects might get tweaks before release.

Ascension Gameplay

This test brings Monolith Exploration, a mode with different difficulty levels. You’ll form a team of three Trekkers to tackle randomly generated Monoliths. As you climb higher, your team gets random combat boosts to power up.

Random Encounters

Besides fighting, you’ll face risky but rewarding choices during Ascension. You’ll need to strategize based on your team’s strength and resources to reach the top. After finishing, you can save your custom team setups, which you can use in other challenges. It’s smart to study each stage’s elemental matchups and environments to build the best squad for the job.
