Wolcen Studio has been hard at work following the successful gamescom 2026 reveal of Wolcen 2, the sequel to its 2020 isometric dark fantasy action RPG, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem. Today, the studio announced that Wolcen 2’s Closed Alpha 2 playtest begins on November 26.
With a community-driven ideology at its core, Wolcen 2 has grown significantly with the feedback received from the first Closed Alpha playtest in August. This is something the team has learned from its experience developing Wolcen 2’s predecessor, Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem and the ExtrAction RPG Gods, Death & Reapers. As part of Wolcen Studio’s commitment to the community, the team has begun hosting Community FAQ’s on the Wolcen Studio YouTube channel.

Closed Alpha 2, available from November 26 to 30, brings a series of improvements to the overall combat feel and pacing, the Combat Mastery, and the Twilight Procession to provide more clarity on build paths and easier use, as well as a smoother UI and user experience based on player feedback. This playtest will also test a new Pistol Ability: Havoc Orb and a new Shadowform mechanic: Parasitic Shadows!
