The timeline for our return to Britannia has finally been set. Following a massive showcase at G-STAR 2025 in Busan, Netmarble F&C has officially confirmed that The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin will launch globally on January 28, 2026.
While previous whispers suggested a late 2025 window, this confirmed January date gives the team just enough runway to polish the open-world experience that thousands of fans playtested during the G-STAR event last week.
From G-STAR to Launch
The G-STAR 2025 floor was dominated by the Origin demo zone, where players got their first hands-on experience with Tristan's movement mechanics and the game's open-world combat. The event, which wrapped up on November 16, didn't just show off the game's visual fidelity—it solidified the scope of the adventure. We aren't just retelling the anime; we are navigating a fractured version of Britannia where time and space are distorted by the Star Fragment.
The event also featured a surprise appearance by virtual artist 'Hebi' on the final day, adding to the spectacle, but the real takeaway for those of us watching the calendar is the locked-in launch date.
What do you get for pre-registering?
Netmarble is pushing hard for pre-registrations ahead of the January release, offering a reward package that actually impacts gameplay right out of the gate. If you sign up before launch, you secure:
- Tioreh (Playable Character): Starting an open-world RPG with an extra character in your roster is huge for early build diversity.
- Skyborne Gale Dual Swords: A weapon set likely tailored to give Tristan or dual-wielding characters a significant DPS boost in the early game.
In a game where you'll be battling golems, werewolves, and potentially facing off against distorted versions of legendary heroes, having Tioreh in your party from day one is a tactical advantage you shouldn't ignore.
Preparing for the Star Fragment
With the date set for late January, we have a clear target. The narrative stakes are high—Tristan, the son of Meliodas and Elizabeth, must navigate anomalies that have pulled characters from the past into the present. This isn't just a nostalgia trip; it's a lore-heavy remix of the universe that requires a solid squad to survive.
Mark your calendars for January 28. The distortions in Britannia won't fix themselves.
