HOW CAN I DOWNLOAD THE BETA CLIENT?
A) DIGITAL PRE-ORDERS
By preordering Warhammer: Chaosbane on the Steam or via the official website: The Warhammer: Chaosbane Private Beta will be visible in your game library on Steam starting March 6th at some time in the evening.

If you have pre-ordered the PC version via the official website, you will be provided a code via email that will unlock the beta for download on Steam. Download the Private Beta and be prepared for the servers to open on March 7th at 9am GMT.

B) RETAIL PRE-ORDER
‍If you pre-ordered Warhammer: Chaosbane at retail, your retailer will provide you with a Private Beta access code. Make sure that you pre-order at participating stores, otherwise you won’t be able to get access to the Private Beta. You can redeem this key to your Steam account.

HOW LONG DOES THE BETA PERIOD GO FOR?
The first beta phase will start on March 7th at 9AM GMT and end on March 13th at 9AM GMT. The second phase of the beta will start in April, and we will communicate the exact dates later.

Pre-load for the Beta will start on March 6th, so you have enough time be ready when servers open on March 7th.

HOW BIG WILL THE BETA BE?
13.4GB.

WHAT LANGUAGES WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THE BETA?
The 1st Private Beta will have English dubbing and English subtitles only. The 2nd phase will feature the UI and subtitles in multiple languages.

CAN I PLAY WITH FRIENDS DURING THIS BETA?
You can play up to 4 players in co-op, local or online. You can even mix for more possibilities (2 players joining an already existing game with 2 players playing couch co-op).

Since the first phase of the beta will only feature 2 characters, players will have to double up on classes. This will also be an option during the second phase of the beta, and in the release version of the game.

WHY IS THERE ONLY THE MAGE AND SOLDIER IN THE FIRST BETA?
Warhammer: Chaosbane is still in development, we wanted to take a little time to give the Slayer and Waywatcher the polish they deserve. This is why they’ll be enabled during the second phase of the beta, coming in April.

CAN I DO CROSS-PLAY FOR THE BETA?
Chaosbane will not feature cross-play between systems, neither in the beta nor for the final release.

WILL MY CHARACTER PROGRESSION BE SAVED FOR BETA PHASE 2?
When entering the second phase of the pre-order beta, your save and characters will be reset, starting again from Level 1. This will also occur for the final game release on June 4th.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT EDITIONS OF THE GAME AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER?
We have three different versions of Chaosbane available for pre-order:
  • Standard Edition
  • Digital Deluxe Edition
  • Magnus Edition
Please note that the leather book included in the Magnus Edition is only available in the retail version. If you pre-order the game on digital stores, you will get the digital version of the game which does not include the art book.

WHERE CAN I PRE-ORDER THE GAME?
Chaosbane can be pre-ordered digitally directly on our website or on the Steam page.

Lastly you can pick up a physical edition of Warhammer Chaosbane via your chosen retail of choice (please check for availability).

IS WARHAMMER: CHAOSBANE ALWAYS ONLINE?
The beta for Warhammer: Chaosbane will require you to be connected to the internet in order to access the beta. This will not be a requirement for the final release of the game.

WHERE CAN I LEAVE MY FEEDBACK FOR WARHAMMER: CHAOSBANE?
Part of running the beta allows us to collect feedback on the balance of the classes, or perhaps identify some issues that may result in crashes. You can submit your feedback for the beta using the Bug Reporting Form.

I PRE-ORDERED THE GAME ON YOUR WEBSITE, BUT DID NOT GET A CONFIRMATION EMAIL. WHAT DO I DO?

I PRE-ORDERED THE PC VERSION OF THE GAME ON YOUR WEBSITE, BUT NOW I WANT TO UPGRADE TO ANOTHER EDITION OF CHAOSBANE. WHAT DO I DO?
