Noticed there wasn't a new thread about this.
All keys are taken, btw. Also, the alpha is under NDA.

Seems like it's been spun off into a standalone game as well. Not surprising since Hi Rez tends to jump on whatever is super popular.
Not sure who this game is supposed to be for? PUBG has the "hardcore" realistic crowd. Fortnite has the F2P crowd. Are they depending on people not liking those two enough to try Paladins RR?

Hours of Operation
Servers will be online for a limited period each day. We expect servers to be live from 12:00 PM EDT to 6:00 PM EDT on Saturday, April 7th and Sunday, April 8th. These times may change - Watch the forums for details!
Known Issues
- Players will sometimes spawn below the world on the starter island. Do not move, as you may fall through the world and instantly die! You'll still be able to play normally once the round starts.
- Damage numbers can sometimes indicate that you dealt an unusually low amount of damage. Don't worry -- The numbers are bugged, and the weapons are dealing the correct amounts of damage.
- The house containing a forge in Northport is missing, and a house in Lumber Mill is bugged (players cannot enter one of the doors).
Access Keys
The first wave of access keys were sent to select players who previously participated in testing our battle royale mode. We will be accepting sign-ups for more testers soon!
Streaming/Recording Policy
During the Closed Alpha phase, players must not and agree not to make reviews, or record gameplay, or broadcast, stream, publicly display or otherwise share gameplay pictures or footage, including online. We will notify players at a later time when they may do reviews and content may be recorded and shared.
The Forging System
As you're looting weapons, armor, and abilities, you have the option to dismantle those items by holding E. Dismantling these items gives you Shards, indicated by a yellow diamond on your screen
Once you have collected 100 Shards, travel to a Forge, indicated on the map with the same icon. Be careful -- Other players may be guarding or using these Forges, as there are only a few in the world.
When you arrive at the Forge, press E to begin forging. This will drop your shards in the circle and start the forging process.
After two minutes, your Shards will become a random Legendary weapon or ability. Remember: This is the only way to get Legendary weapons, so don't forget to Forge!
Thanks for testing, and we'll see you in the Realm Royale!
