The Closed Beta is online for ten days between Wednesday 13th May and Friday 22nd May.

Once they have reached level ten, they can access the intense multiplayer mode as Dragonica’s frantic ten player PvP mode becomes available, giving players the opportunity to earn a rare set of combat armour and show off their fighting skills against the best Dragonica players in Europe.

Players who reach level 20 are guaranteed to keep their character names, while participants in the packed schedule of CBT events will have the chance to win some fantastic prizes to help them on their way in June’s Open Beta.
