Pre-registration

Pre-registration is not open yet (as of 2026-10-07). Gacha games usually open it a few months before launch, often with milestone rewards — when it happens, we will add the steps and rewards here.

Until then, the reliable ways to get notified are the official channels:

Download & APK

There is no public download of Astrae Oratio yet. The game has no live Google Play or App Store page, and the only client released so far was the CBT build, which NC emailed to selected testers. That build stopped working when the test ended on October 6, 2026.

Be careful with “Astrae Oratio APK” sitesAny APK offered on third-party sites is not an official release. Unofficial files can carry malware or steal accounts, and NC’s CBT rules banned sharing or selling the client. When the game launches, download it only from Google Play, the App Store or links on the official website.

PC version & emulators

A PC version is confirmed and will arrive after the mobile launch. NC has not announced a date or a storefront (Steam, its own launcher or otherwise).

Emulators were not an option in the CBT: NC’s server notice stated that the test ran on mobile devices only and that launching the game through an emulator was not supported. Whether that policy carries over to launch is unknown.

System requirements (CBT)

These are the official specs for the in-development CBT build and may change for launch.

SpecAndroid minimumAndroid recommendediOS minimumiOS recommended
ChipSnapdragon 7 Gen 1Snapdragon 8 Gen 2A14A16
RAM6 GB8 GB4 GB6 GB
OSAndroid 12Android 14iOS 16.0iOS 18.0
StorageAt least 10 GB free
ConnectionAlways online (Wi-Fi or mobile data)

In practice, an iPhone 12 or newer meets the iOS minimum, and an iPhone 14 Pro or newer meets the recommended spec. At Tokyo Game Show the developers said they were targeting phones up to five or six years old.

Languages & voice

  • Text: English, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese

The October 2026 closed beta

The global CBT ran from October 2, 2026, 12:00 to October 6, 2026, 12:00 (UTC+9) on Android and iOS. Applications were open from August 19 to September 21, and testers were picked by lottery and notified by email on September 23.

  • Testers had to be at least 16, and access was locked to the first device used.
  • In-app purchases were disabled and all data was wiped afterwards.
  • Content: the prologue, Minato and Shinjuku chapters, 18 playable characters, Score Trial, the Simulation Room, a raid and Free Time.
