We’ve been following YAGER’s upcoming online shooter The Cycle all summer; as we put it in July, it looks like a survival sandbox with Fortnite’s gummy graphics and Monster Hunter World’s mechanics, sandwiched between layers of persistence. Whatever, man, at least it’s not another battle royale game.
Today, the Berlin-based company announced another round of closed alpha for the title, allowing more folks in to take a peek. (The first was back in August.)
“The tests will be running on the 18th, 19th and 20th of September. Servers will be open each day from 19:00 to 23:00 CEST/17:00-21:00 UTC. It is important to note that the second Closed Alpha Test is still under NDA, and people who share in-game footage or screenshots can have their access to the game removed. However, you are free to talk or write about the game declaring your involvement in testing it.”
Signups are live on the official site, and there’s a brand-new alpha trailer to boot.
We are happy to announce the dates of the 2nd Closed Alpha Test and to reveal our first alpha gameplay trailer. The tests will be running on the 18th, 19th and 20th of Sept. Servers will be open each day from 19:00 to 23:00 CEST/17:00-21:00 UTC.#thecyclegame pic.twitter.com/0zdl4ayDo7
