The short answer
Check your access window, client and account before launch. The official test has ended. Existing checklist progress below remains saved in this browser.
Before you start
- Use the global service instructions for your launcher.
- A Founder’s Pack is optional; the announced general launch is free-to-play.
Access dates and pack eligibility
Use the release guide’s dated access table. A purchase is not required to wait for the general launch. Confirm the current regional store terms if you choose Advanced Access.
After the Launch Scale Test
- Steam: follow NC’s instruction to uninstall the Playtest app and download AION 2 separately.
- PURPLE: NC says no additional post-test step is needed. Check subsequent launcher notices for updates.
- Use the connection guide for the test wipe and queue policy.

First-session preparation
Kingy recommendation: confirm login and pick one small goal before following a build or leveling route. Our current class and dungeon pages do not establish a tested route.

Preserve useful observations
Record the global client version, server region and exact problem if your experience differs from the announcement. Keep test observations separate from release behavior.

Still unable to connect?
Use the connection guide to check whether you are opening the test app or the release client. Reinstalling repeatedly cannot reopen a closed test.
