Pantheon: Rise Of The Fallen Kicks Off Pre-Alpha Season 2: The Mouth Of Madness

Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen has kicked off its second pre-alpha season, giving its backers a taste of how seasons will play out when the fantasy MMORPG finally launches, whenever that may be. Pre-alpha seasons are basically regularly scheduled limited-time playtests that run for roughly six weeks and focus on testing a new build.

For Season 2: The Mouth of Madness, testers will get to plumb a new level 20+ overland dungeon and face off against a new level 40+ boss. Mobs and NPCs have also been updated with new abilities and swarm mechanics in addition to spell resistance tweaks, new class abilities, and lighting improvements.

Like in Season 1, VIP backers will be able to play for the entire duration of the season which is scheduled to run until May 10. Champion backers will get to jump in on April 27, while Supporters will be able to join the fray starting on May 4.
