Conqueror’s Guild Beta Begins!
Hey Traveler’s, Heroes and Conqueror’s – Long time no blog eh!
We’re excited to announce that the Conqueror’s Guild beta has been submitted for approval to our platforms and should soon be available for you to play! Read more below about what’s coming with this new patch, how to get playing the new feature early and get to see some video footage created by of our community champions!
How to Gain Access to the Beta
The Orna beta runs within a separate app, server, and environment than what you are used to. Your progress in the Beta version will not affect your progress in the live version of Orna (and vice-versa). Participation in the Beta will require a new character but enabling “Sandbox mode” will start new characters at level 250 with full inventories. You cannot use the “Recover character” option to bring your live character into the beta.
On Android, the beta can be installed from Google Play at:
https://play.google.com/apps/testing/orna.com.ornatest
Please note that the update may take some time to become available to you today as we are awaiting approval from the platform holders.
Be sure to join our Discord and provide us with beta feedback so we can hear your thoughts before launch!
