Attention ISO-8 Hunters!

We're looking for some recruits to join our MPQ Unity Engine Closed Beta!

If you'd like to get a preview of the newest engine, which in theory should look and feel exactly like the current version of the game, please register below and we'll be in touch (via email) should you be picked to join!
https://mpq.social/unitybeta

[h2]F.A.Q.[/h2]
[h2]1. What is being tested?[/h2]
The MPQ Unity build is almost ready to launch on PC and we'll be testing a build that links to the live game server. This is to ensure that the transition from the current engine to Unity will correctly link a player's live account without having to do any manual troubleshooting.

[h2]2. What happens if there's an issue with my account?[/h2]
Your save account is always backed up so if there is an issue with your account during the test, we can restore a save quickly.

[h2]3. Are there any new features that are being tested?[/h2]
Upon launch, players should expect some visual fidelity improvements in frame rates and smoothness in animations, but everything else should remain the same as the current live version.

[h2]4. When will beta testers be notified?[/h2]
We are currently testing the build so PC Beta sign-ups should expect an email early next week with instructions on how to participate if you are selected.

[h2]5. Where are beta bug reports being taken?[/h2]
All beta communications are being done on our official Discord ( https://mpq.social/discord ) in a private beta channel so please create a Discord account if you don't have one already. This will be our easiest and most direct way of communicating with our dev team.

[h2]6. If I don't have a Steam account for MPQ, can I still join the beta?[/h2]
Yes! Once you've installed the beta and create a Steam in-game name, we will link your mobile live account so you can crossplay between mobile & PC Steam during the beta and after launch.
