Saroasis Studios has taken the servers offline following a successful run during the event, where Awakeners got their first real taste of the game's 3D anime aesthetic and tactical hero-shooting. If you spent the last few days scavenging for gear and dodging the Paleblight, your efforts weren't in vain. The development team is shifting focus to refining mechanics based on the feedback gathered during this window.
For those who participated and hit the campaign milestones, the following rewards are now locked to your account and will be distributed when Fate Trigger hits Early Access:
- Icon Charm: Neo Trigger – A unique cosmetic to show off your early participation.
- Eos Parachute: Willpower – A custom skin for your deployment onto the floating islands.
- Loading Permits ×3 – Essential utility items for your future career as an Awakener.
The transition from playtest to refinement is a critical phase for any tactical shooter. In a meta where special skills and sharpshooting must be perfectly balanced, the data gathered during Steam Next Fest will likely dictate the first round of buffs and nerfs we see in the next build. While the wait for an official release date continues, the feedback loop from this playtest is what will ultimately determine if the gunplay feels snappy enough to compete in the crowded hero-shooter space.
Keep an eye on your inventory once the game returns; those Vanguard rewards are a badge of honor for anyone who helped shape the world before the Paleblight took over.
