Alpha Two is coming in Q3 2024! We have not announced specific dates or testing schedules for Alpha Two, Beta One, or Beta Two yet.[1]

The Ashes of Creation release schedule is subject to change.[2]

Spot testing has begun, some limited NDA'd testers are participating in spot tests and December will see more, including some major headless client testing. Also those of you that still have the A1 launcher may see an update in the next couple weeks.[3]Steven Sharif
The NDA spot testing that will be before Alpha-2: We will have first one with our PI members, then we'll have some with our Alpha-1 users, and then our Alpha-2 users; and of course Alpha-2 will not be NDA, but that spot testing will be NDA.[4]Margaret Krohn

Early access

Ashes of Creation testing phases.

Ashes of Creation's core game systems are expected to be in place at the start of Alpha-2.[43][44] By the end of Alpha-2, the game is expected to be feature complete, but it will not be content complete until launch.[45][46]

The game will be feature complete before Beta... Beta really is intended to identify last minute bugs to make sure that everything is ready for launch; it's important that all features are complete by Beta-1. Alpha-2 will not be feature complete at the start of Alpha-2. There are going to be updates that are going to be incorporated as part of the Alpha-2 process and there are going to be additional features that come online that get fleshed out between that time and Beta-1. There's going to be regions of the maps that aren't going to be accessible of course during Alpha-2.[46]Steven Sharif
Alpha-2 is intended to exist up until launch. There's going to be different testing periods that we will be releasing either new content locations or zones or systems that we want to have players focus in on. In those situations, if we're having participation drought because of the length of Alpha-2, we can set them up in a more focused setting. We can even incentivize that. We can offer unique testing to potentially new testers as well.[45]Steven Sharif
  • The developers will not necessarily announce NDA testing periods.[49]

Alpha-1 availability

Pre-order pack upgrades are possible for current pack holders for the difference in price.[51][52][53] Upgrades to Kickstarter and Nyári crowdfunding packs are also available in the store for the difference in package price.[54]

Persistent alpha

Alpha-2 is known as the persistent alpha.[25][26] Persistent means that the Alpha-2 servers will be kept up all day and night until launch.[45][25]

  • There will be downtime for patches.[45][46]
  • Alpha-2 servers will become the public test servers (PTS) post-launch that are used to test patches and updates.[59][58][25]
Alpha-2 will remain even post launch as our public test server.[59]Steven Sharif
The ultimate goal for A2 is to be persistent and the PTS, but before we get that far there's gonna be some wipes I would expect.[58]Steven Sharif

NDA

Alpha-1, Alpha-2, Beta-1, Beta-2 releases are not covered by NDA (non-disclosure agreement).[60]

We may not always announce when the NDA testing is, because we're not definitive how that testing is going to influence the future testing schedule; and we don't want to set the wrong expectation from a broader audience perspective on what they should be expecting with regards to testing.[49]Steven Sharif

Closed beta

Character limits

There will be character limits during the Alpha and Beta testing phases. These are probably going to be more relaxed than for live launch.[62]

  • Allow testing of different builds as needed.[62]
  • Provide equipment needed to test various scenarios.[62]

There will be a "comfortable" number of character slots on launch.[63]

Pre-order packs

Pre-order packs were available from the Kinézeti Bolt up until they ended on January 17, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific.[40][41]

We offer cosmetics for players who wish to support the project early. The exclusive nature of the limited availability is something I think collectors value. If you buy cosmetics as an MMO player, I know I enjoyed if the cosmetic is rare and not every girl at the party is wearing the same dress. In addition, these cosmetics are used to populate the world through NPC variants and color/texture changes so their offering aligns with our production schedule. The good thing about these packs is they contain no P2W advantages and there is no box cost, so from a mechanics standpoint you do not need to buy them to excel in the game on launch. And also, there are comparable and subjectively more grand cosmetics achievable in game as well.[64]Steven Sharif

Status

Q: There are a lot of concerns about deadlines and expectations not being met when it comes to times that are continually pushed back. Will this be resolved?
A: We are in active development, and understanding that for the betterment of our game, we may sometimes have to delay previously provided times and dates in order to make sure that you, as the player, have the best experience. That being said, we strive to meet our windows of time that we provide and will be transparent if these times change.[65]Margaret Krohn

Participation

  • Alpha-0 had over 2,500 participants.[66]
  • Alpha-1 testing had approximately 9,600 participants as of August, 2018.[67][68] There were slightly over 13k participants as of May 31, 2021.[67] There were 5,300 unique logins during the 3 day weekend test of May 27, 2021.[67]

Server wipes

Alpha and Beta servers will be wiped prior to launch.[50]

As a general rule, if the testing phase contains the word Alpha, it is safe to assume there will likely be wipes.[58]Steven Sharif
