Limited Scope:
While the test will provide valuable data on the game's network performance, its exclusion of several target platforms and the lack of cross-platform play are notable limitations. Further beta tests may be conducted in the future, but this has not yet been confirmed by FromSoftware. The developers have also confirmed that the game will not support two-player parties. Any additional gameplay restrictions for the network test are currently unannounced.
