1. What kind of test is the Steam Next Fest demo test?
The Steam Next Fest test is a free, data-wiped, and unrestricted test for PC players on the Steam platform.

2. Will the test server share data with other versions?
No, the test servers are exclusive to Steam, and data will not be shared with or carried over to any other servers.

3. How do I choose a server for the demo test?
The test will feature four server regions: Asia, Europe, North America, and South America. Players are encouraged to select a server based on connection speed for the best experience.

4. What are the test dates for the Steam Next Fest demo?
The test starts on February 24 at 11:00 AM (UTC+8). Please check official community announcements for the end date.

5. Can I share gameplay content (streams, recordings, screenshots) on social media?
Yes, as long as it complies with legal regulations and platform policies. However, data mining, unauthorized use, or malicious defamation of the game will be subject to legal action. Thank you for your understanding and support.

6. What should I know about Chaos Treasures?
During the test, players will receive Chaos Treasure Chests, which cannot be sold or discarded once claimed. They can only be dismantled, and any Chaos items obtained through dismantling will also be non-tradable and non-discardable. Since Chaos Treasures are distributed separately from regular loot, please ensure you have enough inventory space before claiming them via in-game mail.

7. How can I obtain Soul Crystals?
Players who reach level 60 and clear the Void Abyss while wearing Chaos Treasures can obtain Soul Crystals. Additionally, we will distribute Soul Crystals periodically throughout the test for players to experiment with.

8. What should I do if an NPC or quest enemy disappears, preventing me from completing a mission?
Click on your character portrait and exit the room, then re-enter the map to refresh it. (This also applies to single-player instances.)

9. What if I can’t summon my pet?
Pets have a limited usage time. Please check the pet interface for remaining time. The test provides pet duration items, which can be used from the inventory.

10. How can I contact the developers during the test?
Players can submit feedback, report bugs, and suggest improvements via the Steam platform (email or forum). We will actively review and respond to feedback, and special rewards may be given to those who make significant contributions.
