This invite-only cross-play test will let console players in North America and Europe customize a character, experiment with unique weapons, and explore vast, supernatural zones before New World: Aeternum releases on Oct. 15. Players will also have the opportunity to try end-game content.
Sign up now for a chance to participate! Players selected for the Confidential Console Closed Beta will be notified via email in the days leading up to the start of the test.
To help us deliver the best possible experience at launch, we'll review large-scale simultaneous new player onboarding, plus participant feedback on the first-time user experience and endgame open-world features. We want to hear your feedback on as many features and systems as possible, so please share your thoughts.
