Join the Relic Hunters Legend Public Test Server!
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Public Test Server (PTS) for Relic Hunters Legend! This PTS presents an exciting opportunity for our dedicated community to get an exclusive first look at the new features we've been developing.
From the beginning of our Early Access, we've been listening to all the suggestions and feedback you've brought. We've fixed several features and bugs, but we know plenty must be done to deliver the best possible experience for you.
We appreciate all the love and support that our community has been giving us all this time and we hope you continue with us on this journey.
The primary goal of this PTS is to gather valuable feedback from our community. This feedback will be instrumental in refining and enhancing the game, ensuring that it meets the expectations and desires of our players.
Therefore, before releasing the Treasure Maps in a new, more robust, and complex update, we create the Public Test Server so that all players who are interested in helping us improve Relic Hunters Legend can have an advanced look at this new feature, which includes various new maps, a new faction, new items, some rebalancing and changes that were previously discussed with the community.
In this test server, your accounts will be leveled up to be able to play the End Game. This way, you can test all the new features we have implemented in the game without the need to level up a character again.
This also means that progress will not be saved and will not transfer to the normal server. As we mentioned, the purpose of this server is to gather as much feedback as possible to improve Legend.
We've been working on this feature for the past few months and have fixed a large portion of the bugs and errors that you may encounter, but we want your help to further refine the game and carefully listen to your needs and suggestions to make the necessary changes before the new build, which will have a lot more content for you to check out.
[h2]Duration[/h2]
The PTS will run for 10 days, during which participants will have the chance to explore the new features and provide their input thoroughly.
Start Date: February 16th at 1 PM UTC
End Date: February 26th at 3 PM UTC
To participate in this exclusive testing phase, simply enter the password below on Steam to access this version of Relic Hunters Legend. We encourage all willing players to join us in this endeavor and help us identify any errors, areas for improvement, or elements that could be enhanced.

Here is a quick tutorial to activate the PTS:
Go to your Library and find Relic Hunters Legend
Click with the right bottom of the game and select “Properties”
Go to “Betas” and on “Private Betas” copy and paste the password.
Then on “Beta Participation” select the Public Test Server and done!
Your contributions during this PTS will play a crucial role in shaping the final release of Relic Hunters Legend, which will feature even more exciting content and improvements based on the feedback received.
In addition to the Treasure Maps endgame system and a lot of new items, we are also making experimental changes to the balance of the Hunters.
In a nutshell, we are trying to bring all Hunters to the same power level as Raff, while making sure that Raff is more effective as a support character and a bit less effective as a raw damage dealer.
We are also making an attempt at bringing guns back to the endgame meta with significant Weapon Damage buffs across the board. This should hopefully also enable some weapon-centric builds from Hunters such as Jimmy or Ace to become more viable.
We hope that with the new changes and the new items (such as Pinkyy’s “Brawler’s Rags”, which enables her “Low-Life” playstyle like never before) you will have a much more interesting and diverse meta instead of just “Raff goes brrrrrrr”.

We conducted several tests before making the Public Test Server available and we fixed most of the bugs. However, some are more complex, and our team is working to fix them. They are:
- 1st time session's Social interactions might not be working as intended. We recommend restarting the game after the Character creation\tutorial.
- Cannot trade Time Crystal if you're using a Gamepad.
- Players may spawn in an invisible wall at the start of Vortex, legendary Tier 3 Treasure Map.
- Rarely, players may get a Backend Error when opening an Old Treasure Chest with a fully upgraded Old Treasure Key.
- Sometimes, Portals are generated and appear above the Dropship at the beginning of Treasure Maps.
- Some newly implemented Relics, Legendary and\or Unique gears are a work in progress and their name, descriptions and effects appear as “[IN DEV]”.
- We discovered that Ring of Element cannot be crafted because Curious Chest(s) of Dominance contains The Shell relic blueprint instead of The Ring of Element frame Relic part
Thank you for your ongoing support and dedication to making Relic Hunters Legend the best it can be. We can't wait to embark on this testing journey with you and look forward to your valuable feedback!
