Eventually, Walsh plans on setting up an Alpha Discord server for testers to communicate and provide feedback as well, though based on the post it doesn't look like that server will be ready when the alpha actually starts next week.Įarlier this month, Chronicles of Elyria developer showed off the upcoming alpha in a new video, giving potential testers a glimpse into what they could expect to see when the alpha finally launched.

Kingdoms of Elyria's alpha will be under an NDA, with feedback from testers being submitted through the game's launcher. Opening up to just the Alpha 1 backers for this first Alpha will give us plenty of opportunities to gain feedback while testers put the game through its paces."Īs far as what you can expect to hear about the alpha itself, it won't be much. However, and just for now, we’re trying to balance giving as many people as possible an opportunity to provide feedback on the game’s development, while ensuring it’s a positive testing experience. "We appreciate that many more of you will want to play it. This first alpha will only be made available to backers who have Alpha 1 access, though Walsh states in the post that future alphas (which are scheduled for "later in the year") will see that pool of players opened up to Alpha 2 backers down the road. Walsh, in a post on the Elyria website, states that the alpha will be ongoing through the "completion of Milestone 0.2.0." From there, the kingdom sim will be tested a further two weeks until being shut down until the next alpha test opens up. If you are an investor with money to spare have a look at the Investors page. The former launch date for Chronicles Of Elyria was 2019, but that has been announced as outdated, and no further timelines have been shared. Specific dates for alpha and beta testing have not yet been announced. Kingdoms of Elyria's alpha was supposed to originally be in the hands of backers back in May, but delays and issues surrounding the launcher have seen that pushed back till now. No, the game is not playable at this point.
