Vaultbreakers Receives Funding Boost from Square Enix

When undertaking a significant project like a multiplayer game, it’s undoubtedly uplifting to have the support of a giant like Square Enix. This appears to be the case for BetaDwarf and their action RPG Vaultbreakers, as the developer has announced that Square Enix is investing in the project.

The investment from the renowned Final Fantasy developer will be directed towards enhancing production quality and facilitating the development cycle. According to BetaDwarf’s CEO, the team is well into the game’s development, having conducted over 15 playtests with more than 50,000 participants. The financial support from Square will assist in bringing the game to completion. However, the implications of this support on the game’s monetization strategy remain unclear. It has been assumed that it will follow a free-to-play model, aligning with BetaDwarf’s previous releases.

Moreover, alongside this announcement, BetaDwarf has unveiled a new gameplay trailer for the game. This marks the release of the first full gameplay trailer, coinciding with a public playtest that began on July 3. The playtest is ongoing and will continue for several more days. Interested players can obtain a key from the game’s official website.
