Sci-fi MMO Dual Universe has launched its beta, inviting players to come explore the universe. The innovative new IP set in a single-server universe shared by everyone, allows players to build almost anything while participating in a player-driven economy, forming organizations, and waging war with one another.

“After several years of hard work on both the gaming and technology sides, we are finally able to deliver what we think is a very strong, exciting beta. I’m extremely proud of the work done by the team to bring this crazy idea to life,” said the company’s CEO, Jean-Christophe Baillie. “We’ve met each one of our milestone goals since unveiling the updated roadmap late last year, and we’re now releasing what we think is a fully-playable version of Dual Universe, with many additions scheduled along the way in the coming months, leading to the final release in 2021”

In tandem with the Beta launch, Novaquark has dropped the game’s NDA, which finally allows current players to discuss the game and stream it on popular platforms such as YouTube or Twitch. The company has asked its current player base to stay vigilant and only release footage following this date, since any footage captured prior to the Beta remains under NDA. Players interested in learning about Novaquark’s streamer support program may visit the following link for details. Novaquark also took the opportunity of the beta launch to fully revamp the game’s website, and migrate it to a new domain, www.dualuniverse.game.

Novaquark, the developer behind Dual Universe, has revealed that the much-anticipated Beta for its groundbreaking Massively Multiplayer Online video game will release on August 27. A final launch date is scheduled for 2021. The team is planning its final content wipe for the Beta release, making it an ideal time to start rebuilding civilization.

The company has also stated that it plans on dropping the NDA when the Beta releases on August 27. “We’ve been working on Dual Universe for over four years, and after completing the foundation for all main gameplay pillars, we’re presenting a solid idea of what this unique game offers to players, and a fully playable game for Beta.” said Novaquark CEO Jean-Christophe Baillie. “This is a huge milestone for us, as it is the culmination of so much hard work from the developers and a direct result of the community’s commitment to improve the game. I’m incredibly proud of everyone involved.”

Novaquark has opted for a subscription model once the Beta goes live. Players looking to experience Dual Universe will have several pricing options available at that time. The company has positioned the game to be accessible, so that players don’t have to shelve out too much per year. Subscriptions begin at $6.99/month, with three options available at launch (with more to come later on). The longer your subscription, the more you save annually, with the 12-month option including two free months in the price.

Players can expect this pricing model to carry on after the game’s launch in 2021. Alpha backers will receive access to the Beta for free, but should hurry because Alpha packs will soon stop being sold on the company’s website.
Since good things always come in threes, Novaquark has also released the game’s stunning opening cinematic, which depicts the story of Earth’s inhabitants traveling to the far reaches of the universe to recreate society in a strange new land after Earth’s destruction at the hand of a neutron star.
