Welcome back, Seekers.

Let’s get you caught up, shall we?



Last week we announced our upcoming “Fractured Souls” playtest and detailed how you can get your hands on a Key if you haven’t got one already!

📅 Playtest Dates: June 7th – 8th
⏰ 48 Hours of Continuous Server Uptime





We invited you all to the first Town Hall we have hosted in quite a while! This one will be juicy. Join us in Discord as our CEO, Head of Game, and Head of Community break down everything that's coming up for The Bornless. The likelihood of secrets being leaked is high... you have been warned!





Prepare to return to Farmouth Island in the most ambitious version of The Bornless we’ve ever released. The "Fractured Souls" update introduces new characters, new systems, massive visual improvements, and more, in preparation for the playtest and then Steam Next Fest!
Here’s everything you can expect in the latest build:

48-Hour Server Uptime
For the first time, during our playtest The Bornless servers will be open continuously for 48 hours, giving players around the world the opportunity to dive in early. Why join now instead of waiting for Steam Next Fest? We’re glad you asked...

Persistent Account Progression
With 10 Playable Characters and 3 Playable Demons to unlock, getting in early means getting ahead. All inventory and unlocks from this playtest will carry forward into Steam Next Fest. So, if you want a head start, this is your moment.

Seekers & Demons
Whether you prefer stealth, chaos, precision, or destruction, there’s a Seeker for every playstyle, and a Demon to match. Each playable Demon offers a unique set of abilities, giving you the power to terrorize and dominate your enemies in entirely new ways.

Trading & Quests with Haag
Scarcity defines the gameplay in The Bornless, and that’s where Haag comes in. Haag is your connection between matches, offering fresh quests and trade opportunities for precious Gold. Complete tasks or barter junk for rare items to improve your odds of survival.

Visual Overhaul
The entire game has undergone a huge visual upgrade. We’ve enabled Nanite, Lumen, and hardware ray tracing, offering higher fidelity models, better lighting, sharper shadows, and stunning reflections.

More Secrets…
Farmouth Island continues to evolve. From hidden Enigmas and ancient crypts to entirely new locations and enhanced enemy behaviors, there’s always something lurking in the fog.

The only way to uncover the truth? Join us in the ritual.

Mark your calendars for the "Fractured Souls" Playtest:

🗓️ June 7th - 8th

Do you want to secure a Steam Key and enter the fray? Request access on our Steam Store page —we're setting aside a few thousand keys for those who request access, but selection will be random.

For far better odds, we highly recommend heading over to our Discord server, where we will be hosting flash giveaways as we get closer to the playtest dates. Or try your luck on our recent X post, where simply tagging a few friends could land you a key…

We can't wait to see you on Farmouth Island!

If you die to a headshot on Farmouth Island... you’ll know it was skill, not software.

We've integrated Tencent’s Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE) into The Bornless, helping to ensure a safe and fair environment for all players in our upcoming playtests.

Extraction shooters, especially FPS games, rely on their players being able to compete in a fair and balanced environment; utilizing all their skill and strategy to take that winning spot. Cheating undermines all the hard work that we as devs have poured into creating a level playing field for all, and ultimately ruins the experience for players looking to compete fairly.

That’s our top priority: ensuring the best and most well-balanced gameplay experience for you. As our player base grows, this only becomes more important.

That’s where Tencent Cloud and Anti-Cheat Expert (ACE) came in.

[h3]Why ACE?[/h3]

ACE is built on nearly 20 years of anti-cheat expertise and a vast database of cheat samples. Using AI-powered detection and big data analytics, ACE identifies and mitigates even the most sophisticated threats, including DMA (Direct Memory Access) exploits and AI-based cheats, before they impact gameplay.

The result? A more secure game, a more engaged community, and a foundation for sustainable success.

Fair play starts with strong security.
