really looking forward to be part of the Beta testin team 

regardless whether there is open beta or not, hoping it will be another 4X bomb.

Would love to be apart of the beta for Humankind!!!! So excited to see it come out this year!

Would like to take part in a game testing, if it is possible. Love playing 4X strategies, and excited about this game. Hope you will notice me :)

I'd consider it an honor to help test this new game for you folks...it looks like such a fun take on the genre.

I hope I too can be on this beta testing.

Hi All,

Does anyone know when this game is due to release and if there are any demos or test editions out now?

Do you mean Opendev?

Those are usually week long limited betas that only go up whenever Amplitude figures they need an open audience to give feedback on certain game mechanics, UI issues, and other things. The Stadia Opendev, which was open to everyone who could use their Gmail to sign in, ended last tuesday Oct 2020. We don't know if there will be a next one, or when the next one will happen.

Part of me 'hopes' there is another OpenDev but a larger part wants to wait in quiet anticipation for 6 months until launch and take the ENTIRE WEEK off just to play Humankind every waking moment for the week .... ? I can't be the only one ;) 

The OpenDev scenarios are limited and probably not something you would want to play for a week straight. Most of them are a single battle which I can't imagine you'd want to play more than 5 times. They are intended to provide focused feedback on specific aspects of the game, rather than demonstrate all game play together.

I think he didn't speak about open dev but the final game.
