'Seekers Of Skyveil' Alpha Test Tomorrow, Closed Beta In September, Accepting Sign-ups - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 7, 2024 @ 5:28 p.m. PDT

Seekers Of Skyveil is a PvPvE fantasy extraction RPG inspired by games like Escape from Tarkov, Diablo, and League of Legends.

Drawing inspiration from MOBAs, battle royales, and hero shooters, Seekers Of Skyveil combines the high-octane moments of extraction with brawly teamfights and action RPG gameplay.

Choose a character from the growing roster of Seekers that fits your style (a tanky living tree, joyful bunny-girl healer, artistic ice mage, and more), gear up with whatever you’ve got, battle enemies, uncover powerful loot, and get ready for adventure. Just make sure you make it out alive or all will be lost to the Aurastorm.

You’ll team up in groups of up to three and head out on expeditions in the Everbloom. Find loot by taking down creatures, opening treasure chests, and plucking it off enemy players you bested in battle. Make sure you make it out alive because you only keep what you extract with.

Build up your stash across matches, and use coins and crafting materials to bolster your supplies. As you grow stronger, you can travel deeper into the map, fighting progressively stronger creatures and eventually taking on bosses who guard the most powerful items.

With in-game events, randomly-selected regions, and unpredictable enemy players, each match plays out differently. Use your knowledge, Seeker mastery, and the power of teamwork to collect the goods and make it out alive.


Developer Elodie Games announced that Seekers of Skyveil is entering Closed Beta in September 2024.

Sign-up and wishlist on Steam for your chance to join playtests, secure exclusive alpha rewards, and shape the future of SoS.

The foundational gameplay loop will be complete, and Elodie Games will turn our attention to adding more depth to the experience, with more Seekers, content, and other features on the way.

With two maps already available and a third coming at the start of Closed Beta, Seekers of Skyveil has options so you can play your way. Find your feet and relax in the lower stakes “capped” map. Then jump into the “uncapped” map, with more to explore, unique bosses to defeat, and 24 players vying for loot. And when you’re ready to test your skills against the strongest players, jump into the upcoming  “high stakes” map, where you’ll face the biggest challenges and reap the best rewards.

With the upcoming introduction of Strix–a deadly owl archer with sniper-like range and high attack damage–there’s a roster of 9 diverse Seekers to choose from, with more to come throughout Closed Beta.

As the devs add more content, they' ll also ramp up our playtest schedule, inviting players to jump into the game more often.

This week's North America playtest happens on...
