The director of the game 2xko, Shaun “Unconable” Rivera, published a long online statement (first on Reddit, later on X) closing speculation and disinformation regarding the game and the upcoming online game test. This includes the fact that the next game test will be “much smaller” than the first Alpha laboratory test.
A whole statement, which you can read hereIt begins by recognizing the “crazy memes and hysteria” of the official game sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -sub -game, before he revealed that the team initially planned to conduct a game test on a larger scale next month, and the February update includes this event. However, it seems that the plans have changed to a smaller game test instead, while the team is building infrastructure for a larger influx of players this year.

Rivera also dealt with the pulse fuse because there were discussions among the community. This fuse for those who do not remember allowed players to rub one button and make a decent combination (maintaining all ordinary attacks). It seems that it has been replaced by the automatic combination setting that can be selected when choosing a sign.
Instead, River reveals more about the up-to-date fuse: a helper. In general, this removes the ability to switch two playable characters at all, instead they provide a point of health and providing a second player with a more “supporting” role. Think about how Yummi in the League of Legends, which is attached to another master and helps them, throwing their skills (in 2xko, assists) that facilitate in their assault.
It seems that this information was suddenly published in response to the leaks that appeared online at the beginning of this month (of course we cannot connect to them), which explains the sudden and largely unexpected post Rivera here. It does not contain a dates for a February update, which remains the main topic of speculation in the minds of 2xko fans.
Of course, this post raises a lot of questions. The first and most pressing in my mind, how much smaller will the upcoming game test be? The first Alpha laboratory turned out to be popular with flocks of up-to-date and experienced fighting players who are in a hurry for access.
It also raises the question, why a smaller test? If I can speculate, it can be collecting data on a specific user database, maybe it’s better to balance the game for a wider player network. For example, they add a helper fuse, right? So maybe they want a smaller test addressed to an experienced and completely up-to-date 50/50 testers? This is something I personally want to learn more.
Then there is a decision to build infrastructure for an increased number of future players, which is compelling. Perhaps, given the popularity of the first Alpha laboratory, the team expects a very significant escalate in registration in the future test. It is on her face that makes sense, we saw how the last time many players remained frigid, and this kind of ponderous compilation to release tend to interest, the closer they are approaching this long -term release date 1.0.
However, the cookie is falling apart, it is on February 21 from writing, which means that it should not be Too long Until we find out what the contract is for sure. Still, an compelling look at what is happening, even if it was suddenly.
