NEXON (The First Berserker: Khazan) has officially announced the global Alpha Test dates for Vindictus: Defying Fate, and it’s a lot sooner than expected, and will be available from June 8 to June 16, 2025. Building off the March 2024 pre-alpha, this next phase brings a whole arsenal of upgrades that includes companion NPCs, enhanced combat mechanics, a new village hub, a revamped inventory system, and yes, more ways wreck the crap out of just about anything. Sounds like fun, doesn’t it?
To sign up for the Alpha Test, head on over to the Steam page. However, at the time of the announcement, the sign-up / apply for the Alpha Test button wasn’t live when I checked. Keep checking back!
To celebrate the announcement, NEXON dropped the Alpha Test Trailer, spotlighting the game’s evolving world and fresh characters. Lann and Fiona are back from the pre-alpha, now joined by Delia and Karok, each bringing new flair to the fight. Expect smoother animations, more brutal combos, and a combat flow that feels like every hit could split the screen in two.
While the Companion NPC System lets you roll into battle with AI-controlled allies. These aren’t just meat shields...
