Trine 6 Private Playtesting Returns October 27!

It’s almost time to get Trine 6: Together in Time back into your hands! Our second Private Playtest will run on Steam from October 27 through November 2, and sign-ups are open now!

Since our first Private Playtest in July, we’ve been hard at work making improvements based on your feedback. As we shared in our August development update, some of our biggest priorities have been building out the new Classic Puzzle Mode, expanding and refining hero abilities to make each character feel more distinct, and improving the multiplayer experience.

We’ve made a lot of progress over the past few months, and now we’re ready to invite players back in to see how those changes are coming together!

What’s new?

Tons! In this playtest, you’ll be able to experience some levels in the all-new Classic Puzzle Mode, which features puzzles inspired by earlier Trine games that put greater emphasis on each hero’s unique abilities and how they work together.

You’ll also be able to try Freestyle Puzzle Mode improved by your feedback, which still retains its more open-ended puzzle approach that offers more flexible opportunities to make your way through the game.

There have also been improvements to visual clarity, especially in multiplayer, various bug fixes, and other tuning and polish.

What we’re looking to discover:

Our first playtest gave us a much clearer picture of what players were enjoying and where we had room to improve. This time around, we’re especially interested in seeing whether the changes we’ve made are addressing that feedback and how your experience compares to the first playtest.

We’ll also be inviting plenty of new players to get a fresh perspective on the game and see how the improvements resonate with those experiencing Trine 6 for the first time.

Want to join us? Here’s how:

If you participated in our first Private Playtest in July, you’re already in! You’ll automatically receive access to the updated build when the Steam playtest begins on October 27. No need to sign up again.

We’ll also be accepting many new players, so if you haven’t had a chance to play yet, you can sign up today on Firstlook.gg!

As with the previous test, everyone accepted into the playtest will also receive three additional friend keys, so you can bring your crew along for the adventure with you.

We’ll also be again asking participants to complete a survey about their experience. Your feedback is incredibly valuable as we continue improving Trine 6, and everyone who completes the survey will be entered for a chance to win one of 25 additional Steam keys for the game at launch.

Thank you again to everyone who has played, shared feedback, and helped us make Trine 6 better. We’re excited to see what you think of the changes, and we look forward to hearing from you again soon!
