Silver Studio, a branch of Happy Elements, together with publisher Elementa Games, has announced the start of the Monotype Closed Beta Test (CBT 1) for Silver Palace. This initial test is limited to Windows PC players aged 18 and above, and all progress will be wiped at the end. No in-game purchases are enabled during this phase, as the developers aim to gather feedback on performance, mechanics, and narrative pacing. The Beta Test opens this January 13 to January 18.
Silver Palace has attracted attention for its mix of open-world RPG exploration and detective investigation mechanics. Built on Unreal Engine 5, the game promises high-quality visuals and immersive environments set in Silvernia, a Victorian-era metropolis infused with modern aesthetics.
Players assume the role of a detective tasked with uncovering conspiracies and dismantling a dangerous syndicate. Early previews suggest up to seven playable characters will be available during testing, each with distinct abilities and narrative arcs. The game’s design philosophy recalls elements of Disco Elysium and Sherlock Holmes: Chapter One, while its anime-inspired visuals and RPG systems invite comparisons to Genshin Impact and Tower of Fantasy.
The official announcement was made on the official website and the official X account. You can pre-register in the official website, for the game and the Beta Test.
