Gamers can view the game trailer now and register for the upcoming closed beta at www.playblackshot.com.

With the world in a state of chaos and powerful nations competing for money and resources, Blackshot players must take on the role of a mercenary and make a name for themselves in the game’s dangerous environments. Aspiring soldiers of fortune can enter the Blackshot war zone later this summer, when the game makes its worldwide debut.

Starting from the 10th of March till the 17th of March 2010, we performed the 1st phase of our closed beta tests. In this time we had more than 7000 unique tester online on our servers from various European and North American countries, giving our servers the first stress tests.

In this time the servers have been opened to our testers from 03.00 PM until 12.00 AM including an all open weekend, in total more than 100 hours. The result from these tests and also the reports of our testers are currently getting reviewed by the product team to evaluate changes for the next phase!


Based on the results we gathered, the next closed beta phase will focus on network improvement and analyzing to increase the quality of service for our future players. The 2nd phase will focus only on European territories and there for players from other regions won’t be able to connect.

Additionally to the European focus in the 2nd phase of our closed beta, we will increase the numbers of lobby’s to 3 now. Germany will get provided by an own lobby next to West and East Europe!

The 2nd phase of the closed beta will start on the 24th of March and last until the 31st of March 2010! In this time the reporting event for our testers, which will provide them some special and unique items, is continuing as well!

Features of the Blackshot Closed Beta include:

  • 4 battle-ready mercenaries to choose from
  • 17 powerful weapons including assault rifles, machine guns and grenades
  • 7 varied maps and 3 challenging game modes
  • More than 30 pieces of armor to customize your character
