End of Dysterra Global Beta Test

We would thank you to all the survivors for participating in our global beta test.

We have been through many things over the last two weeks of our test.
Based on gathered feedback and play data through the official community, we could identify crucial issues, and take time to fix problems that we have faced through this valuable time with survivors.



We couldn’t respond to all your valuable opinions and suggestions during the test period, but we will check everything carefully right after the test, and prepare for the next one.

In the next build, we will be able to provide quality game experiences for all our players with various and new contents of Dysterra.

Even after this test, we will continue to share our upcoming update through our official Discord and Steam community.

Thank you.

[h3]πŸ“ŒRecommend optimizing your graphics and Resetting your controls prior to playing the game. [/h3]

[h3]πŸ“ŒSingle player mode[/h3]
By playing in single player mode, you will be given a chance to experience various contents such as spot events and facilities. At the same time, you will be able to adjust the game environment such as resource respawn, PvE damage, and NPC quantity for faster and easier growth.

However, please note that your previous play record will be initialized if you choose to start a New Game in single player mode. Unlike the official server, the single player mode may directly be affected by your personal PC and the system requirements that it has. We will do our best to work on our optimization so that we can provide you with better gaming environment.

[h3]πŸ“ŒThe official server has both PVP and PVE server.[/h3]
If you are struggling and stressed out to compete with other players, you can join PVE server, and experience the various contents of Dysterra.
6. If you are new to Dysterra, try out the tutorial.
Once the character is created, you will see the tutorial pop-up before accessing the game.
When you decide to go through the tutorial, you can learn a variety of game systems Dysterra has such as looting, crafting, and survival with mission guides in the beginning.

You skipped over without experiencing the tutorial?
Don’t worry, Journal(J) - in the Survival Mission List, you can check out mission information such as how to survive, combat, and crafting through the short videos that Journal offers.
In the Journal, you can find information you might need, including exploration areas, resources, and items. On top of that you can also check the locations of resource drop and NPC by pinging directly to the little map provided in the Journal, as it also appears on the main map.

Of course, those who have already experienced Dysterra can play the game without going through the tutorial.

Come join our Playtest, and feel free to ask us through our Official Discord channel if you have any kind of inquiries. We will get back to you as soon as possible.

We will also share the answers of gathered inquiries from the testers on our Official community.
