The first gates of Shadowmire swing wide today. A limited cohort of cultivators may now cross the threshold into the closed beta — and every name that walks the path now is carved into the founding roll, a permanent title the later realm will never grant again.
This is not a marketing window. It is the realm's first breath: rough at the edges, honest about what works, and built to be broken so we can rebuild it stronger before the world opens for good.
What you can do in the beta
Choose one of the four paths — Monk, Phantom, Mystic, or Valkyrie — and begin the long climb through six stages of cultivation, from Golden Core to Earth Immortal. The beta opens the mortal hub of Fangze City, the contested heights of the Eight Trigrams City, and the first world bosses willing to test a fresh ascendant.
- Four gender-locked classes, each with a full P/Q/E/R kit and a distinct way to kill.
- Open-world cultivation, sect rivalry, and the first taste of guild-scale conflict.
- A weekly cadence of balance passes — the realm changes under your feet, on purpose.
“Cross the threshold now, and the realm remembers it. Founders do not earn their title twice.”
How to claim your Founder title
Register for the closed beta and play during the window. That is the whole requirement — no purchase, no grind gate. Your progress may be wiped between builds, but the Founder title, the sky-steed mount, and the Homeland banner are permanent once earned. Walk the path first, and the path will know you for it.
We will be reading every report from the front. Climb high, break things, and tell us what hurt. The next breakthrough is yours to find.
