Set in a dilapidated military training base in Antarctica where strange biomechanical creatures now roam, each team will need to gear up and set out to dominate the opposing team.

Over a dozen highly-detailed rifles and pistols have been recreated in painstaking detail and can be brought into battle, allowing you to realistically hold each with one or two hands, and load, rack, fire, and clear them, as well as change firing modes. Tools and munitions help round out your arsenal, including grenades, health kits, armor upgrades, turrets, and tracking upgrades.

Players are matched into 10v10 teams and coordinate their tactics through approach, strategy, and gear to dominate the enemy team in a unique and beautiful sci-fi experience through beautiful maps and engaging game modes like capture and control.

Teams will fight for control of a forgotten military base in Antarctica where other players aren’t the only enemy. Gear up and charge forward to deal with the opposing team and protect yourself from the constant, otherworldly biomechanical threat.

Frostpoint VR: Proving Grounds is inviting players to enter the Antarctic tundra and join in multiplayer team-based combat. From August 24 until September 4, the closed beta test will run globally on Steam.

For this beta test, Thirdverse and inXile will be accepting a pool of testers, invited in waves throughout the Closed Beta period, to help achieve testing goals.

Players can apply for entry to the beta via the request form here.

When the Open Beta for Frostpoint VR: Proving Grounds launches later this year, players who participate and meet specific playtime requirements will be provided with a free copy of the game at launch.

Frostpoint VR: Proving Grounds is planned for global release in ten languages in 2020 on Oculus Rift, HTC Vive VR, and Valve Index headsets.
