Get ready for some hot and heavy action, because a second closed beta for the multiplayer dragon battling game Century: Age of Ashes kicks off this week! Developer Playwing held their first beta in February, but this new one will add several new modes and improved matchmaking. You can request access to the beta via the game’s Steam page. Check out a new gameplay trailer for Century: Age of Ashes, below.
Here are some of the new modes and features included in the second Century: Age of Ashes beta:
- Rookie mode will be only accessible until level 10
- Adding a Skirmish mode: a best of 5, 3v3 game mode, that will replace the Rookie mode for level 10 players and above. All the controls will be available at the start of the first round.
- A Free Flight mode will be available. You’ll be able to familiarize yourself with the Dragon’s controls and play against an enemy bot.
- Adding an MMR system to the queue to improve match balance and put players of the same level into the same games.
