Greetings, Banebreakers!
It's been some time since our first playtest came to an end.
Since then, we've received a wealth of feedback, along with many questions about when the next test would begin. Thank you to everyone who participated, shared suggestions, and continued to support us.
To further improve the game, validate the changes made after the first playtest, and test two major new systems, Wonder Skills and Dao Hearts, we're excited to launch our second Playtest. Your feedback will help shape the next stage of development.

During our first playtest, it was incredible to see how everyone approached the game.
Some players mastered powerful Artifacts to crush every challenge, while others dove deep into experimenting with different Five Element builds.
We received a wealth of valuable feedback, some pointing out areas for improvement, and others sharing thoughtful insights on what worked well and how we can elevate the experience further.
To everyone who joined the test, offered feedback, or continues to support Demonbane: Ascension, thank you!
The game is still a work in progress. More Five Element paths, mythical legendary Artifacts, new Realms, Wonder Skills, powerful bosses, and brand-new story chapters are all actively in development.
Whether you are returning for your next journey or stepping onto the path of demon hunting for the first time, we look forward to seeing you.
Don't forget to follow our official community channels, where we regularly share development updates, behind-the-scenes insights, and gameplay previews!
July 23. The Blood Moon rises again.
We'll see you in-game.
