Lysward's Open Beta Is Live Now!

Explorers, the moment is here!


The Lysward Beta is officially live, and we're thrilled to invite you to step into this scorching desert. To mark the occasion, we’re also releasing a new gameplay trailer:

A quick but important note: This is an early look at a game still actively in development. You will encounter bugs, unfinished areas, and features that are still being balanced. We’re releasing it in this state for one reason: to build it with you.


You can join the beta by clicking this button on our page. It'll give you immediate access:

Here are some known issues you can find in the game. We’re aware of them and are working to get them fixed as soon as possible. You can find the full list (and report new bugs) on our Discord or Steam forums:

  • Quest-problem: Walls Behind Me - Search the oasis camp: If you have already found and read the book hidden in the camp, you have to re-read it to progress this quest.

  • UI problem: There are scaling issues when playing in Windowed Fullscreen.


Your feedback is absolutely essential. You’re not just playing; you’re helping us shape the future of Lysward! Wishlists are super important for indie devs, so wishlist Lysward to also support the development!

Are you ready? Let’s play!
