Dead Cells News

Fancy helping us test some new Dead Cells content in December?

Hey everyone,

We're once again asking for some intrepid Dead Cells players to test some exciting, shiny-new and very chunky Dead Cells content and help us get some final polish on it. We will be asking for feedback and there will likely be some game-breaking bugs and weird crashes, you have been warned!

NOTE: People who applied after our Discord message a few weeks ago do not need to apply again!

If you'd like to take part then please fill in the form using the link at the end of this post. You will need to provide your full name, email and Steam profile name - we'll only use those details strictly to contact you about the beta, but if it makes you uncomfortable to give us that information then unfortunately you won't be able to take part. However, we've done this three times now and never had any problems, so you'll be in safe hands 🙂

You'll also need to sign an NDA before we start, then not share any details of the content with anyone outside the testing group until we release the content. If you do, we'll come after you with the giant Frantic Sword we keep in the office. Only half joking...

Applications are open until the end of November, then testing would begin around mid-December. We will not send anyone any messages before the end of November/start of December, so don't worry if you don't have any contact from us before then.

You can apply here: https://forms.clickup.com/2460712/f/2b318-21862/ION7S0V1385HHFV92D

Thanks in advance to everyone who wants to take part!

Cheers,
Matt, EE & MT
