Hello all,
We have lots of exciting news for you today, so let's get to it!
New Trailer and Early Access Release News
We've just released a brand new trailer along with a piece of news that we know you've all been waiting for: Long Drive North will launch in Early Access this November!
Head over to IGN to watch the new trailer, and take a look at just some of what you and your friends will get up to on your multiplayer road trip!
Steam Playtest Applications Now Live
Applications are now open for our Steam Playtest which will run next week, from 1st – 8th September! Head to the Steam store page, scroll to the 'Join the Long Drive North Playtest' widget and hit the green 'Request Access' button now to apply!
Steam Playtest players are selected at random, so applying does not guarantee participation. Players selected for the playtest will have the ability to invite up to three friends from their Steam friends list, to enable multiplayer testing. The successful applicants (selected at random by Steam) will receive an email from Steam once they have been accepted – so check your email inbox on Monday 1st September (including junk)!
If you have not received an email by 2nd September and your playtest status on the store page has not changed, you can assume you were unsuccessful this time.
