Hey hunters, Today is a big day! Endless Mode is finally feature-complete. It still lacks polish and might have bugs, so we’d appreciate if you would help us test it and give us your feedback! Here’s how: 1) Go to your Steam library; 2) Right-click “Relic Hunters Zero” and select “Properties”; 3) Click the “Betas” tab; 4) You will find a field labeled “Enter beta access code to unlock private betas”. Type the following password (without the quotes): “endlesstester”; 5) Click “Check Code”; 6) If you did everything right, you should see this message: “Successfully opted into the ‘endless_test’ content beta.”; 7) Click the drop-down menu labeled “Select the beta you would like to opt into:”, and then select the option “endless_test”; 8) Close the window. The game should update now, and after a few moments you should be good to go! Want to know what’s next?
