The gates are open. F irst public Playtest of Long Trip VR has begun — and this is your chance to ride into our dark fantasy world before the Demo and Steam Next Fest.

🗓 Playtest Period: January 28 – February 5

This is not just a preview. This is the very first time Long Trip VR is playable by the public.

What You’ll Be Testing

This Playtest is a focused combat experience, not the full game.

  • Mounted combat mechanics • Melee & ranged weapon feel • Boss encounters: Humanoid, Dragon, Troll & Giant Sand Worm • Classes: Knight & Gunman

⚠️ Read This Before You Play

This is an early development build and focuses on combat experience.

This Playtest focuses on combat, not the full game experience. Many systems, features, and regions have not unlocked yet.

Expect bugs, rough edges, and that your feedback will directly shape the game.
