This is an early playtest, running August 20-23

We're mainly focused on technical testing and getting your early feedback! Please note that balance, progression, and content are still being worked on, and you may run into some bugs. We'll share a short survey in the playtest to understand how we can improve for the upcoming demo and beyond.

Play solo or with friends

Take on the Deadzone alone or squad up with two friends in co-op. The server browser will be live, along with a new drop-in feature so you can jump into a co-op run in progress.

Thanks for your support!

We're excited to see you in the Deadzone on August 20th, all the best!

FAQ

What platforms is the playtest running on?
The playtest will be available on Steam. In the demo that's coming later, we plan to add PS5 and Xbox!

When does the playtest start and end?
We expect to launch the playtest at roughly 2PM ET on Thursday, August 20, and close at 2PM ET on Sunday, August 23. For the first few hours of the playtest, we may let players in through gradual waves to ensure everything is running properly before fully opening the playtest up.

What's the best way to share feedback?
We keep a close eye on Discord and Reddit, and will also share a survey to get feedback!

Will my progression be carried over from the playtest for the demo or full game?
No, progression will not carry over. This helps for testing and if we need to make system adjustments.

When is the demo, and what's the difference from a playtest?
The demo will be available in the next 1-3 months, and should be a bit more polished than the playtest in terms of balance, bugs, etc. This alpha playtest is sort of like a sneak peek of the demo.

Can I play with friends during the playtest?
Yes, co-op will be available on PC for the playtest, with squads of up to 3 players. The server browser will also be available, and we're testing out drop in co-op. We plan to add PS5 and Xbox for the demo.

How will I know if I've received playtest access?
You'll receive an email from Steam once you've received playtest access, and can also check your status directly on the Deadzone Rogue 2 steam page.

Yes, go for it!

Will Planty be in the playtest?
