The short version
The whole answer in one scan. The detail below just backs it up.
How invites actually work
HoYoverse has not disclosed how Honkai: Nexus Anima beta invitations are distributed. Assume nothing is guaranteed — pre-registering may help but has not been confirmed to grant access.
What a beta is not
A pre-launch test is not the launch game and not early access you keep. Progress typically wipes, and HoYoverse has not confirmed save migration for Honkai: Nexus Anima.

Should you chase the beta?
Who actually benefits from getting in — and who loses nothing by skipping it.
Chase it if…
…you enjoy testing rough builds, reporting bugs and previewing systems early — and you accept the build is incomplete and your progress will likely be wiped.
Skip it if…
…you want the finished game. A beta will not give you a head start that carries to launch, so waiting costs you nothing but a preview.
Common mistakes to avoid
The beta traps that waste time or risk a ban.
"Beta key" / "early access" sites
Only https://hna.hoyoverse.com/en-us/ is a confirmed channel. Sites selling or gifting Honkai: Nexus Anima beta keys for an unreleased game are not endorsed by HoYoverse.
Treating a test build as the real game
Balance, content and performance in a pre-launch test do not represent launch — judging Honkai: Nexus Anima from beta footage is premature.
Ignoring an NDA
Aspect Exploration Project (second test) is documented as NDA-bound — sharing footage from an NDA test can get you banned.
