Evaluation
Nine Trials launched on Steam as an Early Access game on June 27, 2019, developed by a small independent Chinese studio. The team was active through early 2020, shipping updates roughly monthly — new weapons, game modes, a new battle royale map, bug fixes, and balance changes. In January 2020, the game transitioned to free-to-play to grow its player base, compensating existing purchasers with in-game currency and cosmetics.
On May 18, 2020, the developer posted a server closure notice explaining they needed to shut down to comply with Chinese government licensing requirements. They estimated the closure would last about 3 months and promised to inform players when the next test period would begin. That post is the last official communication from the studio. No follow-up announcement has been made, no server reopening was announced, and no further updates have been posted — leaving the game's future completely unresolved for over six years as of June 2026.
The game remains listed on Steam as an Early Access title, and the store page is still accessible, but there is no evidence the servers were ever reopened or that development continued after May 2020.

About this game:
The Unreal 4 engine is built to render the real world of fairy chivalry. You will play as a survival immortal and try your best to survive to the end in a serials way.
Enter ruins and empty cities, pick up weapons to meet death challenges, and embedding runes to enhance survivability. Match your magic weapon, learn to use terrain to disguise yourself, discuss tactics with partners, and work together to defeat the enemy.
Monsters all over the corner will attack you at any time within the scope. They carry a lot of props and equipment. If you encounter these monsters on the way, think clearly, you choose to kill them or take a detour.
Be careful that behind every bush and bunker there are sneaking enemies looking at you. Of course, you can also hide in a place that is not easy to find and plot an assassination attack.
Fighting is imminent. Use your props reasonably to carry out tactics and defeat all the enemies. A cruel test begins!
