Scars of Honor Steam playtest countdown — April 30 to May 11, 2026

The first community playtest for Scars of Honor on Steam runs from 30 April 2026 through 11 May 2026. The countdown above ticks down to midnight at the start of 30 April 2026 (UTC)—the same one you will see on the Chronicle home page. Steam may still open access in waves, so your download or invite might arrive a little after that moment; watch Steam notifications and official posts from the studio.

What the playtest is for

Messaging around the April window describes a technical test: stress on servers, feedback on core systems (combat, talents, Scars, gathering, crafting, questing, voice chat, and phased content such as dungeons and PvP), and bug discovery—not a finished launch build. Treat patch notes and official posts as the source of truth for what is enabled on each day.
