The next playtest starts next week!

[p]Hello adventurers,[/p][p]Early 2026 has arrived, as promised: it’s playtest time! We originally announced the next playtest to launch at the end of March, but since the first went so well, we’re feeling confident to give access to a lot more people this time, starting on January 27th.[/p][p]The goal is to stress-test our online infrastructure and take it to the limit. [/p][p][/p][p]The version of the game will be the same this time around. It is still expected that the version of Outward 2 you will be testing will contain bugs. There are lots of potential issues, mainly with the online co-op and that’s exactly why we need help from you guys! The many feedbacks we’ll receive will truly help us build the best Outward 2 we can. [/p][p] [/p][p]The playtest will run from Tuesday, January 27th at 4PM EST to Monday February 2nd 1 PM EST![/p][p]If you are selected, you will receive keys in an email from Nine Dots Studio that day. Don’t forget to check your spam folder too! [/p][p]You can still register now and have a chance to get access next week! [/p][p]Register here[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Join the community[/p][p]Join our Discord to chat with us about the upcoming playtest and share your feedback.[/p][p]
