A beta event is planned to take place from June 3rd through to June 13th, featuring a brief glimpse of what the final game has to offer. The beta event will be free to access, simply by requesting a key through the official website. Content will be limited to three teams, Imperial Nobility, Black Orcs, and Elven Union, each roughly representing several of the games various archetypes. No player customization options will be available, although limited team customization choices will be present. Furthermore, none of the competitive aspects of the game will be available, such as Leagues and Tournaments.

Local play and online matchmaking will be available.įollowing the beta event, Early Access for Blood Bowl 3 is expected to launch on PC in September of this year, although we’re unsure of what content will be available in that release. Cross-platform play is also looking increasingly unlikely. After originally announcing cross-platform in August of last year, developers Cyanide quickly recanted and have not said much since.

During the press preview event, the question was pitched to Clement Nicolin, but he was unable to either confirm or deny cross-platform support. It’s a huge selling point for a niche game that looks to launch across multiple platforms, with competitive play vital to the games natural growth. Limiting that audience to single platforms works, but it’s not the best environment.
