One Punch Man: World closed beta test announced, pre-registration is live right now

Forthcoming online action game One Punch Man: World will have a closed beta test later this month.

Announced today, the closed beta test will launch on October 18 at 7 a.m. PST. Interested players can pre-register for the open beta on PC, iOS, and Android here. Pre-registration will close on October 10 at 11:59 PM PST. To celebrate the announcement, a new gameplay trailer has been released. An official launch date will be revealed soon.

A synopsis for the game reads:

Heroes are needed in One Punch Man: World! A sinister wave of monster attacks has left Earth’s cities and the Hero Association under duress. However, after three years of special training, Saitama has become so powerful that he can defeat opponents with a single punch. The thing is, Saitama just does the hero thing for fun, but when every enemy goes down in one punch, overwhelming power can be kind of... boring. Now, in front of the laid-back strongest hero, a new enemy appears. Will he be able to show his full power today?
