Screenshot Competition - Monster Train

Hey All,

We hope you have been enjoying the Beta so far! The forces of heaven have been taking a beating, that’s for sure. We've seen a lot of great screenshots from you already! That's why it’s time to see how much you have grown in Monster Train! It’s time for a deck-measuring contest!

To get you started, here’s an example of one of our high scores, but we're sure you'll have us beat in no time!



Over the weekend (Friday 9:00 CET – Monday 9:00 CET), upload a screenshot on Steam of your Monster Train playthrough. We are looking for the best of the best in the following categories:
  • The highest score after completing a run.
  • Most creative combo. This can be anything from the most OP party to the biggest tank you can make, get creative!
  • Most tragic moment. This can be any situation that made you curse your enemies back to the gates of heaven.


Amongst all the submissions, the community will vote on the winners in each category. We know you have all been jamming to those banging (train) tracks in the game, so the winner of each category will receive an exclusive digital copy of the Monster Train Soundtrack!

If you need any help with your deckbuilding, you can always check out our discord and here's a quick guide on posting screenshots to Steam.

We wish you the best of luck, and see you in hell!

Beta is Live!



Hey All, it’s the day you’ve been waiting for!

The Monster Train Beta launches today and will run until March 19th. We’re really excited to share our hard work with you and hear your thoughts. Here’s some key info below to get you started:

The following content is available:
  • Choose your primary clan with the Hellhorned and Awoken. More clans will be unlocked in the full game.
  • The very first level of the Challenge Covenant is unlocked. Yes, there are more ;)
  • Hell Rush is available for multiplayer. Invite your friends and see who thinks quickly on their feet.
  • Finish the special Dev Designed Daily Challenge waiting for you at launch. Can you measure up?

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions:

Hey! I don’t have the Beta! Get it here.

What is Beta? A Beta is not intended to be an all-encompassing look at the features, but it allows us to focus on specific areas that give you a taste of the goodness to come. There is more content to see in the launched game.

What about bugs?
Before we opened up the game to Beta, we had closed testing sessions to determine any issues remove game-breaking bugs. We prioritize players and have a great reputation of responding quickly and tracking problems down to minimize delays. Please use the F8 key in-game to share bugs. Keep in mind that while we worked diligently to share a technically flawless game, there might be an unexpected item or two.

How can I provide feedback on the game?
Beta allows you to get a first look at content but more importantly, it gives you a voice. Take advantage of the chance to let us know your thoughts by joining Discord. There you can chat with fellow players and send us your impressions in real-time.

Can I stream the game?
We’d love to see your content online. Please do share with friends and your streaming community. Don’t forget to let people know that this is a partial look at the content and not the final finished game yet. We have a Streamer kit for you here will overlays and assets.

Would I have to buy the full game after Beta?
The Beta period will last for three weeks before your free key becomes invalid. But if you complete the following survey by March 19th we have 50 keys to unlock the full game at launch which we will randomly select from the participants of the survey.

When's Beta? Find out today on the livestream

When's Beta? Find our TODAY during our developer livestream at 11AM PT/2PM ET/8PM CET.

You can watch on the Steam store page or in Twitch.
