Seekers of Skyveil North American Closed Beta Starts Next Week, Devs to Continue Other Regional Tests

Seekers of Skyveil is entering its next phase, with closed beta starting on the North American servers next week, and additional playtests in North America, Europe and other regions. 

But first, Elodie Games will have to wipe all inventories and progress before the beta begins. All player progress will be wiped but there will be some things you can expect when you log in during closed beta. Namely, starter gear in basic grays that you'll have to build upon, but in an extraction title like this,  you'll be raking in the loot soon enough. The team will leave you 500 gold and if you played during the closed alpha, the Lily emote.

The North American closed beta will open on Saturday, September 21st from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. EDT and on Sunday, September 22nd for the same hours. The weekend beta schedule is partially in response to community feedback saying that people wanted more playtests on Saturday and Sunday, or some of them had started during the week before. So here's the weekend closed beta test. 

That said, the team also announced plans for Europe and other regions and those regions will still be getting play tests, but mostly these will be similar to closed alpha for now with less frequent tests. Seekers of Skyveil test servers have not been region gated, but you'll have to put up with the lag if you choose to participate from wherever you are. So if you are in Europe and you want to play  with reasonable latency, there will be occasional European tests and “very infrequent tests”  elsewhere for now. «One day, we'll have all the resources to play Seekers of Skyveil everywhere, all of the time,» they said.

North America will also get a bonus weekly play test on Fridays, starting on September 27th. Extended testing is one of the other community requests, and this is what they are calling an experiment to see how these go for now. They're hoping to be able to collect more data and learn a lot, especially with systems that benefit from longer tests. like item
