Star Atlas fans are in for a treat as playable demo goes live on the Epic Games Store. Running for quite sometime now, early adopters of Star Atlas can now get to experience a taste of what the game has to offer.
Accessible to Seasoned Badge holders, the pre-alpha demo called Star Atlas: Showroom is a showcase mainly of the game’s environment. Running using Unreal Engine 5, clips and trailers from the showroom demo feature high quality visuals almost comparable to AAA games. Aside from the environment, players can also get to view ships although getting in one is not an available function yet.
As it is a web3 game, and as stated previously, access to the showroom is limited to seasoned badge holders. The game is also not readily visible on the Epic Games store as players must redeem their pre-alpha keys first before accessing the game’s store page. A handy guide is made available by ATMTA, the games development team, detailing the steps to be part of the demo:
- Head to play.staratlas.com
- Click on the link that will direct you to the Epic Games Launcher
- Download Showroom and open it
- Once you reach the Showroom landing page, you’ll need to connect a wallet
- Go to your player profile page
- If you qualify for access, you’ll see your game key listed on your profile page
ATMTA also adds that “anyone can earn admittance with a small amount of effort and time” which means that access might not be completely limited to badge holders only. The qualification for the Star Atlas: Showroom pre-alpha includes players who have at least one Seasoned Badge on or before September 29, 2022. Players who have higher level badges also get to receive extra keys which they can give away to friends so they can check out the demo as well.
