New World Open Beta Starts September 9th

After numerous delays, the full release of New World will take place on September 28th. But before that, on September 9, Amazon plans to launch an open beta testing phase, in which gamers from all over the planet will be able to take part.

This was announced at Gamescom 2021. We were shown a new trailer that reveals the historical premise of the fantasy New World: you find yourself on a legendary island with many hidden treasures to find. However, on the way to them, adventurers will encounter dangerous dark magic.

The trailer is good, but let's just say it doesn't capture what New World really is. Before buying a game, you can try it out yourself or take a look at the many gameplay videos that are already roaming the web. Barring technical issues (which is one of the main reasons behind the porting), the rest of the game is easy to access. Amazon uses the latest Steam beta testing, so you can download the game directly from its page in the Valve store.

The beta will be available between September 9th and 12th, and if Amazon stops delaying the main release, the game will be released on Steam on September 28th. Right now it can be pre-ordered in Russia for 1299 rubles, in Ukraine - for 479 UAH. For the Deluxe Edition, you will have to overpay approximately 20%.
