The first pre-alpha playtest of Project Evilbane will begin tomorrow in the Xbox Insider Hub! During this 3-day test, we hope to gather your valuable feedback and further refine the game into a more polished experience. Gather around if you’re ready to hunt demons, Insiders!
Game Overview:
Project Evilbane follows a hardened team of apocalyptic survivors who have sworn to avenge their ruined world. Join the battle to triumph over the Archdemon’s forces and save humanity!
Playtest Introduction:
Project Evilbane is currently in the early stages of development. To help shape it into a more enjoyable game, we’re conducting our first playtest to gather your valuable feedback. The main goal of this playtest is to evaluate the fun and feel of combat. You can enter the battlefield solo or in a party of up to four players, taking on various missions and fighting powerful bosses.
In this playtest, you will be able to try out four different characters and four weapon types. Players can equip one melee weapon and one ranged weapon at the same time to use strategically in combat. Skills are divided into two types: Active Skills and Heavenstone Skills. Each character can equip two of each type, allowing for customizable loadouts. Turn the tide of battle in critical moments with well-timed skills and experience the thrill of clutch plays. Mix and match your preferred skills to create your own unique combat style. Whether you fight solo or team up with others, we hope you’ll have a thrilling time.
We look forward to hearing all your feedback!
Playtest Schedule:
- Start: Friday, August 29, 1:00 AM PT (4:00 AM ET)
- End: Monday, September 1, 1:00 AM PT (4:00 AM ET)
