removedHow long will the Playtest last?The Playtest runs from March 9 at 11:00 AM PT to March 23 at 11:00 AM PT. That means you’ll have exactly two weeks to participate. After that, the exclusive reward will no longer be obtainable.
changedWhy participate?The Playtest is your chance to earn an exclusive in-game reward by unlocking a special Steam achievement. It’s simple - complete the Playtest, unlock the Steam achievement, and once the full game launches, you’ll receive a unique armor set and a two-handed sword.
added🏆EXCLUSIVE REWARD:Conditions to receive the reward: - Add the game to your wishlist. - Follow the publisher page on Steam. - During the Playtest, earn the Steam achievement "Old Guard" .
added🏆EXCLUSIVE REWARD:To unlock the "Old Guard" achievement, you must complete the Playtest without hiring any new recruits. You may only use the mercenaries available at the start. Since they can die, flee, or leave if not paid on time, this will be a true challenge.
