The beta for the next major update, currently set for December, will be arriving in the next few days! In the meantime, we'd like to tell you a bit more about it, and about how a beta phase works.
The beta phase allows players to test updates before they're rolled out, so they can give us their views on in-game developments and help us identify any shortcomings.
This phase is a chance for us to fine-tune and improve how upcoming updates work by performing large-scale tests involving hundreds of players at once. These tests complement the ones we perform internally.
The DOFUS Touch beta is available through a separate application called "DOFUS Touch Early", which you can find on the App Store and the Google Play Store (via this link). Once you've got the app, just use your usual username and password to log in.
As you've probably guessed by now, we don't recommend playing this version of the game outside of the test periods!
To help facilitate testing, a NPC is located at the Amakna Village Zaap at [-2,0]. Talk to this NPC to buy various items associated with the update currently being tested.
The forum is generally preferable because it's easier to track discussions there over time.
We'll get back to you about that in just a few days… ;)

- Characters are imported from the DOFUS Touch app at different times throughout the year. So don't be surprised if your character in the beta doesn't have their latest equipment, kamas, etc.!
- Actions you take in the beta phase will have no impact on the regular application or servers.
- Our team reserves the right to reset the server at any time.

How do I give feedback?
Test Instructions
When the team provides no specific test instructions, we encourage players to test a beta version using two different methods:- Read the changelog and test the listed changes.
- Test the content and features that are not directly affected by the changes in the changelog, to confirm that the update hasn't caused any unexpected side effects.

Communication with Staff
Players can communicate with each other and with the DOFUS Touch team via two platforms:- In the dedicated section of the official form, only open during the beta phase.
- On the Discord for the beta.
The forum is generally preferable because it's easier to track discussions there over time.
When's the next beta phase, and what's it about?
