Key information
Krafton has officially announced the inaugural closed beta test for PUBG: DED.NET, a new multiplayer first-person shooter developed by PUBG Studios. The testing phase is scheduled to run from noon on the 9th through the 12th, based on Central Time in the United States.
The game features a unique blend of gunplay mechanics and a roguelite progression system. Set in a reimagined 1996 Cascadia, players must navigate multiple matches within a single run, adapting their strategies and character growth to survive changing conditions.
This beta is limited to North American users on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Krafton aims to evaluate technical performance, server stability, and matchmaking efficiency under high-traffic conditions following the title's initial reveal at Gamescom 2026.
Participation is open to North American residents aged 17 and older with valid console accounts. Selected testers can invite friends to form squads and are encouraged to provide feedback via official surveys and the game's Discord channel to assist in future development.
