Hello again, Rewilders!

After the amazing response to our first public playtest, we’re back with a new chance to get your hands on Rewilders: The Lost Spring. This time, in a brand-new biome.

We’re inviting you to explore the Wetlands, where new enemies and Hântu await. The playtest starts December 15 at 3PM CET / 6AM PST and runs until December 20.

Sign-ups are now open, and selected players will get access to a new area featuring a new enemy to challenge and expanded movement and combat mechanics.

How to join the playtest:

  1. Visit the Steam page and click the Request Access button.

  2. If selected, you’ll receive an email with instructions to join.

  3. Don’t forget to wishlist the game if you haven’t already!

This time, you’ll be exploring a swamp that was once full of life, now transformed into a toxic wasteland.

You’ll also get a first look at:

  • Expanded combat skills (have a first look at the Sprint and Jump attacks)

  • Improved combat fluidity and responsiveness

  • Two new Hântu companions with unique combat abilities

To everyone who joined the Grasslands Playtest in November: thank you. Your feedback has been incredibly valuable, and we’ve already implemented major improvements based on it.

Some key takeaways:

  • CombatPlayers asked for faster, more responsive combat. We’ve improved animation timing, hit feedback, and unlocked key moves like jump attacks and light-heavy combos.

  • Movement: The feel of running, gliding and dodging has been revamped. It’s now smoother, snappier, and easier to control.

  • ControlsWe've listened to gamepad users. "Hold to Sprint" is now disabled by default, and we've also added aim assist to improve accuracy with the blowgun.

We’ve added a feedback form right inside the game’s main menu, plus a private Discord playtest channel where you can:

  • Share bugs or ideas

  • Talk directly with the devs

  • Stream your playthroughs

We read every message. Your feedback is shaping the game, biome by biome.

No worries! We’re expanding the test group for this round. Even if you weren’t selected before, you’ll have a better chance now. And if you’re still not picked, we’d still love to see you on Discord to chat and follow along as the world of Rewilders grows.

Thanks for being part of this journey. We can’t wait to show you what’s waiting in the wetlands.

See you there, Herobeat Studios
