Game Overview

🎮

What is Seven Deadly Sins: Origin?

Seven Deadly Sins: Origin is an open-world action RPG developed by Netmarble, based on The Seven Deadly Sins anime and manga franchise. It combines real-time combat, gacha character collection, multiplayer co-op, and large-scale exploration across multiple regions.

⚔️

What type of combat does the game use?

The game features fast-paced, real-time action combat with character switching, cooldown management, elemental burst mechanics, and boss counter systems. Combat emphasizes timing, synergy, and team composition rather than simple button mashing.

🛡️

How does team building work?

Players form teams focused on elemental synergy, often favoring mono-element setups such as Earth, Frost, Fire, Light, or Darkness. Each character can equip multiple weapons that alter abilities and elemental alignment, allowing flexible builds and role changes.

Gameplay & Systems

🗺️

What game modes are available?

The game includes open-world exploration, boss challenge raids, cooperative multiplayer dungeons, story quests, side activities, and resource farming/crafting content. Co-op play allows friends to complete high-difficulty content together and share rewards.

🌍

What activities are available in the open world?

Players can explore hub cities like Leonus, gather resources, craft items, fish, sail boats, dive underwater, and hunt world bosses. Navigation tools allow map pinning and resource tracking, making farming and exploration easier.

📈

How does character progression work?

Progression is based on character leveling, mastery upgrades, weapon enhancement, and equipment optimization. Early levels are relatively easy to achieve, but higher progression requires significant experience resources and gold investment.

🎲

How does the gacha system work?

The game uses separate banners for characters and high-tier weapons. While acquiring a single copy of a strong character can greatly boost progress, duplicate pulls and weapon-heavy banners can slow progression for free-to-play players. Rerolling accounts may be beneficial at launch.

Progression & Economy

💰

Are there concerns about the in-game economy?

Yes. During beta testing, players reported limited organic farming methods for experience potions and gold. Progression relied heavily on beta rewards, raising concerns about early-game resource bottlenecks after launch.

⚙️

How is the performance and optimization?

The closed beta showed performance issues including stuttering, crashes, frame drops in large fights, and hardware strain on both PC and console. Mobile performance remains uncertain, as no mobile beta version was publicly tested.

🎯

What content is planned for the future?

The game is designed as a live-service title with future expansions planned. Additional regions, characters from the anime (such as Escanor, Merlin, and the Commandments), new bosses, and more endgame content are expected after launch.

Who is the game best suited for?

Seven Deadly Sins: Origin is best suited for fans of the franchise, players who enjoy action RPG combat systems, MMO-style progression, cooperative gameplay, and long-term character building with gacha mechanics.

Is the game recommended?
