Invite your friends and signup for Last Epoch’s Free Multiplayer Beta Playtest on Steam!

On the steam store page of the game is a “Request Access” button.
Below the regular button, where you add it to your cart

Does someone know how the mechanics of this “playtest” on Steam will work out? I can only play the game through GeForce Now and until now I have been unable to participate in any of the beta testing activities events since it required you to subscribe to the beta channel on Steam which GeForce Now doesn’t allow. Will this event work through a similar mechanism or will you be able to play it by just hitting the Play button on Steam on the default distribution channel?

For this one it’s just the ‘Request Access’ button on Steam, so if you can hit that button you should be able to play.

I’m pretty sure that the automated reply from Steam indicates that the request for access has been passed on to the dev and that you guys need to approve those requests to actually grant access (unless Steam changed something since the last itme I did one of these). Those that don’t own the game don’t have any way to download anything yet.

I both own the game and have been in the Closed Multiplayer Test. My current version of the game is via Steam. Do I still need to opt in on the steam event page to participate in this event with friends? Will I need to install a separate client or change any previous settings?

Is there a pre-downloaded client?

Have you heard anything about Geforce Now availability in the multiplayer Beta?

Nope. It’ll be try and see.

yes, will be another client and you need to apply

I just found out that the playtest uses a separate Steam library entry which means you cannot participate through GFN, as usual.
