The Beacon Patrol Playtest Is Now Live

Ahoy, Captains!

The Beacon Patrol playtest has officially launched, and we’re inviting you to take to the seas. Not just solo, but with friends! 🌊

Once you're in the playtest, you can invite up to 3 friends to join you on your patrolling adventures. Teamwork is key, become a crew.

Haven’t joined yet? No worries! You can still sign up for the playtest on the Steam page. Check the “Request Access” button and hop aboard!

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 eager to hear your feedback on the multiplayer experience — from bugs to balance to the best teamwork fails. Got thoughts? We’re all ears! Come aboard the Discussion Boards and share what's on your mind with us.

Thank you for playing and helping shape the future of Beacon Patrol!Your support means the world (or at least the sea). 🧡

Thanks so much, and happy patrolling! 🛟 The Beacon Patrol Team
