Zombie survival sim God Save Birmingham Beta 2 begins next week
Publisher Kakao Games and developer Ocean Drive Studio are excited to announce Beta 2, the next public playtest for upcoming physics-driven zombie survival simulator God Save Birmingham, will begin on 2 November and run until 9 November.
Following months of closed playtests, Beta 2 is the second chance for most players to try God Save Birmingham since the beta test that took place this past June. Any of the returning 67,000+ players who checked out God Save Birmingham during Beta 1 will notice a considerable number of changes to the game.
During Beta 2, players can attempt to survive the harsh medieval setting with their friends in an alpha build of co-op; a save feature has been added, giving players some extra security while they try to fend off zombies; and there are also plenty of general gameplay upgrades, like more ways to cook, additional items to craft, and new weapons to wield.
In addition to new features, Ocean Drive Studio has made numerous tweaks based on player feedback: zombie aggression and general behaviour is now more varied based on the zombie type, clothing provides different levels of warmth for the player depending on the material, and more types of doors and windows can be barricaded or latched.
Anyone who would like to jump into the playtest just has to go to the God Save Birmingham Steam page from next Monday and click the “Request Access” button that will be there. They’ll then be granted instant access and get to experience a taste of zombie-filled, Middle Ages England.
The God Save Birmingham public beta test begins 2 November at 3:00 pm PT / 6:00 pm ET / 11:00 pm GMT and concludes 9 November at 10:00 am PT / 1:00 pm ET / 6:00 pm GMT.
