If you’ve tried the demo, you already know the solo experience — but this Playtest goes way beyond that. Here’s what’s waiting for you:

  • 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Local Multiplayer for all game modes

  • 🗺️ Exploration Mode — now with the first 4 ships available

  • 🎲 Board Game Mode — for those who want a more classic tabletop experience (excl. the Ships & Shores addon)

  • 🎨 Creative Mode — build and explore freely without restrictions

Whether you’re teaming up with a friend, testing out the different modes, or just cruising the seas your way, this Playtest is your chance to dive deeper into Beacon Patrol than ever before.

We’re especially looking for thoughts on the multiplayer experience, but we’d love to hear any and all feedback — about the game modes, controls, balancing, anything!

Don’t hesitate—sign up for the Playtest now and help us shape the future of Beacon Patrol! Your input is incredibly valuable and helps us make the game better for everyone.
