The beta features 21 playable characters, including a pair of limited-time Black Spot options, six permanent ones, 12 permanent Purple Spot characters, and the protagonist, the Traveler. Players can explore White Sea and Bridge Sea, which include new Journey and Roaming Quests. Two starting ship options, the Fireworks Wanderer and the Drift Bottle, are available to provide different naval combat styles. The test also includes a high-difficulty challenge called Peril Theatre.

Casual minigames like Lucky Duel and Goose Chess remain available, though players can only match with others on their specific server. While the game is planned for a 2027 launch, NetEase Games and Joker Studio say developers intend to add a completely shared multiplayer world after release.
