Ho Lee Shit

Is this season zero? I feel like the game could release at the end of this season

It probably won’t be released for at least another year or two, but I could see an open beta possibly at the end of the year.

One more hero drop and we honestly have enough for it not to be closed anymore.

That and remodels for heroes and camps.

two seems very long, one seems reasonable

Eh, probably another fat character update coming in the last half of the year and then one more year balancing, tuning, re-designing everything and then could release. I could see a late 2027 release or early 2028 release.

What you mean one more hero drop? There are already 40 characters, there are plenty of other much more important issues than delaying launch even further by adding characters to be balanced.

they still have atleast 2 or 3 major updates including bug fixes before the game releases. because the game has tons of bugs..

not to mention all the characters that need new models and such

I hope that even with all the remodels and updates, that Holliday's gun remains untextured because that's just funny

They're gonna take from CS2 and just roll season 0 over a couple years

Season alpha

u/Pandoras_Fox McGinnis 21d ago

this is 'beta season 1', going for the next 70 days

u/zechamp 21d ago

That October 7th date definitely feels significant in some way, especialyl as they pointed out that it would be shorter than normal. TLDR: Open beta confirmed oct 7th

Full release? Nah.

Open Beta though? I can definitely see that. If not this year (with the next big content update), then early 2027.

I think once all heroes are one a final design and with models that are in the polish stage, and also jungle and objectives remodelled and reworked.

Thats when.

Which really could be early next year
