Players of Frontier’s massively multiplayer space shooter sim Elite Dangerous will soon be able to get themselves a taste of the planned season three, when Beyond: Chapter One‘s open beta goes live later this month. Among other things, the beta will let you play in Wing Missions, which are team based objectives players from around the world can participate in.
In addition, the beta brings with it the Chieftain, an Alliance Warship, and multiple gameplay and graphical improvements across the board as well, including better rendering technology for distant planets, better engineering mechanics, rebalanced mission rewards, as well as a re-tweaked Crime and Punishment system to add layers of risk and reward.
While the final update is meant to go live as a free download for all players of the game across PS4, Xbox One, and PC, for now, the beta will be available starting January 25 on all platforms.
