Experience the core gameplay and fresh mechanics, and meet new characters and some of your future companions. Take a glimpse into the mystery of Dark Heresy's story, which unfolds in the darkest corners of Scintilla.

How to Join the Alpha

Alpha testing will be available to all founders who have supported us and purchased the Developers Digital Pack or the Collector's Edition on our website.

If you purchased an Edition that does not include access to alpha testing, you can still join the alpha. Check out the Edition Upgrade function in your “My Orders” section in your account on the website. You can upgrade your order and get all the rewards that the upgraded Edition offers.

The alpha testing will take place on Steam. The game can be activated using the key that you'll receive in your account when the alpha goes live. We will inform you when the key drops in your account and it’s time to redeem it. We’ll also provide you with detailed instructions on how to activate it.

Thank you for supporting us by becoming a founder. Await further instructions on December 16th, Acolyte. And in the meantime, remember:

Innocence proves nothing.
