TestNet Phase 3 - On the Horizon

And a feature packed playable future is near

Oct 13, 2022

Progressive Release of Features

TestNet Phase 3 will differ from previous TestNet releases in that each new feature will be released to the test network as it is completed, rather than a suite of features being released only once all are completed.

Beginning in a few weeks, if you stop by the test network from time to time, you may find new features implemented. Since there will not be a big announcement made around each addition, the best way to discover new features is to follow our Twitter account, join our Discord and, of course, check out the test network for yourself.

There will be another Test-to-Earn event once the full suite of TestNet Phase 3 features are completed, when players can help to test the client and earn some rewards. Additionally, anyone who completed new features before the event will still be eligible for any associated rewards.

When will Test-to-Earn Phase 3 happen?!

There is no set date for the launch of the next Test-to-Earn event yet, but there will be an announcement approximately 2 weeks before this event begins. Additionally, there will be video guides for all of the new features available before the launch of the next Test-to-Earn event.

There is no date yet announced for the next Test-to-Earn event, but players will have at least two weeks’ notice before launch.
