Beta Registration Open
Greetings, Commander-to-be!
We're happy to report that you can now register to participate in the Starforged Legacy beta!
This will be your first opportunity to play the game, in its entirety, as it currently stands in development. All you need to do is click the bright green "Request Access" button at the top of the Starforged Legacy Steam page! We've anticipated that you'll have exactly two very important questions regarding this exciting prospect, and we have exactly two very important answers:
When Will Playtests Occur?
We'll be welcoming our inaugural team of test pilots on August 22nd!
Shortly after this initial wave, we'll switch the beta to 'Open Access'. From that point on, anyone who requests access will be granted it immediately. Additionally, testers won't be required to play during specific windows; instead, they will have access to the game for the entire duration of the playtest. We programmed the aliens to be patient. The pirates, however, we wouldn't keep waiting.
We aim to update our playtest build every other week. This will enable us to incorporate feedback as we receive it, collect your opinions on features as they evolve, and provide you with something new and exciting to explore every two weeks. It's a win-win!
We're confident that after a few intergalactic joyrides, game-breaking builds, and intimate encounters with asteroids, you'll have ample feedback to share (and likely a bug report or two). That brings us to your second question;
Where Can I Give Feedback?
We encourage you to direct all feedback, bug reports, and questions to our community Discord!
Here, you'll find channels to share general feedback and forums to host discussions about the game. If there's anything specific we'd like to collect feedback on, we'll do so through surveys. Finally, our Discord is where you'll find our biweekly update patch notes—after all, prepared pilots tend to survive a bit longer.
Wishlist Starforged Legacy
While you're signing up for the playtest, you may as well click the other bright green button that says "Add to your wishlist". We're incredibly thankful for the reception we've received so far, and hope you'll join us in bated breath for the early access launch of Starforged Legacy later this year!
