Project Warlock II: Reworked Chapter 1 Playtest is Now Live!

Hey Warlocks,

As per last week's announcement, the Open Playtest of Project Warlock II: Reworked Chapter 1 is now live! It’s starting today and running all the way until next Monday.

The aim of this playtest is for everyone who hasn’t yet had the chance to play Project Warlock II to dip their feet into Reworked Chapter 1, which reflects changes to the game from the last two years of Early Access. You will be able to try out the upcoming improvements and help us reshape Chapter 1 as we add the finishing touches to the update.

Project Warlock II: Chapter 1 tells the story of Palmer, Warlock’s disciple, whose affinity for guns and a touch of magic fuels the fight against the ruthless demonic army. The reworked Chapter 1 is the fruit of player feedback in combination with paying homage to the original Project Warlock game, and is how we see Project Warlock II going forward with Chapters 2 and 3.

A quick recap of what’s changed from the previous version:

  • A fully revamped upgrades, perks, and skills system
  • Brand new weapons with new alt-fire methods
  • Adjusted magical skills
  • Elemental runes for weapon enchantment
  • and much, much more

To join the playtest, head to Project Warlock II's store page, scroll down to the Playtest section below Demo, and request access. Since it's an open playtest, you will automatically gain access to the Playtest build, and Project Warlock II Playtest will show up in your Steam Library.

We've prepared a short Feedback Survey for you to fill out once you play a fair bit of the Reworked Chapter 1.

You can find it here: https://forms.gle/3GDd1pVAvTosVLrY7

We can't wait to hear your feedback - here on Steam forums, the feedback survey, or in our Discord.
