Hi there! As noted above, while the exact same skin will not be available again in the future once it's gone from the Shop, these skins are all variants of creatures that you can expect to see across Verra - so perhaps you will find one with a similar style in-game!

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if there's anything else we can help answer!

Hi there friend! We always include the following text in our cosmetic articles each month, to clarify that this is only flavor text and is not intended to convey any advantage of any sort:

"*All skin cosmetic items are cosmetic items only and do not grant the user any other benefit. The lore text is flavor text, and background of the creatures and items in the world of Verra. Costume cosmetic items do not include the weapons pictured."

You can see this text underneath the Adventurer Pre-Order Package section in the Brine and Bounties article here!

Hi there! You can check out the latest update that Steven shared on our plans for Alpha One here.

Steven 😇: I know everyone is excited about A1 being available again, but give us time to flesh out the approach and we will give further details at the end of the month. You can however expect upgrades to be possible for current package holders. <3

Hi there friend! We always let you know the start and end times for each cosmetic pack in the announcement posts here on the forums, as well as on our official news page here! You should now see the new From the Undergrowth cosmetic items in your Shop here.

Hi there friend! Each Pre-Order Pack grants you the cosmetics it shows you in the shop, and unlocks the ability for you to purchase the cosmetics of the same category in future months! For example, the Wayfarer Pre-Order Pack would include the Lumilichen Stovepipe, and allow you to grab any future accessory cosmetic skins that you wished! In order to get the costume or freehold cosmetic skins as you noted (the Muscarian Marshals and Mycelian Mansion for this upcoming month), those would be included in our Voyager Plus Pre-Order Pack.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if there's any other questions we can help answer in the meantime!

Hi there friend! We're currently working on transitioning to support our EU/CIS players internally (where they had been supported by MY.GAMES previously), so I would recommend keeping an eye out for more details on an EU-based shop moving forward! In the meantime, you are able to purchase packs directly from our shop here, though there may be VAT that reflects your local area.

Hi there friend! At the moment our testing is included in the Pre-Order Packs available in our shop, and there isn't a separate way to grab just test keys - though we always recommend keeping an eye on our news and social channels to catch the latest updates on testing!

As folks have noted, since this is a topic we haven't covered directly before, I would recommend bringing your question to an upcoming live stream Q&A thread!

Our live streams are usually at the end of each month, and we typically post a forum thread about a week in advance where you can submit your questions for our team. We also share this submission link on our other social media channels so you can see it no matter where you follow us!

Hiya friend - looks like Talents shared some helpful links above for where we've talked about our plans for each of these test phases previously! In general, our Alpha One phase will be early fundamentals, focusing more on core systems - while Alpha Two is planned to be in a more persistent state until launch. As noted, those final few Beta phases are planned to be shorter windows, just prior to launch.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please let us know if there's anything else we can help answer for you!

Hi there - looks like Talents already got you some helpful answers above! While we haven't announced any details on what that Alpha One access might look like if it were to open back up, we'll be sure to keep you posted on the latest news as we have it.

In addition, we'll be keeping this helpful support article updated with the our system recommendations and requirements as we continue through testing!

Hi there friend! You may have seen in videos from our recent testing that your artisan tools are present in your inventory rather than your equipment slots, though I don't believe our team has necessarily shared that that will always be the case!

In general, I would recommend staying tuned for more details on artisan systems as we dive deeper into testing, or adding your TL;DR question to an upcoming live stream Q&A thread!

Hi there friend! The design process for these fortresses hasn't kicked off quite yet, so no worries about missing out! We'll be keeping all relevant backers posted via email on all the details they need to know on when and how to redeem that perk, including any relevant design considerations or limitations.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread out now, but please don't hesitate to reach back out if we can be of any further assistance!

Hi there friend! As noted above, the cosmetics available in our Pre-Order Packs change on a monthly basis, and we always let you know the start and end dates for when they'll be available both in the articles on our website and on our official Discord!

Hi there friend - looks like someone already shared a few very helpful links to the community-run wiki on your requested topics!

Hiya! While I couldn't find any specific references for where we've noted that jewelry would be visible before (as compared to stuff on your back/belt), we have indeed shared cosmetics for jewelry items (specifically rings) in previous months! As I'm not sure we've clarified whether those would be replacing the appearance of your existing visible jewelry or just making them appear generally, I might recommend sharing a version of this question...

Hiya friend - seems like folks above already got you lots of helpful answers! As noted, the cosmetic items in the current Pre-Order Packs rotate on a monthly basis, and they are never available again once they're gone. Purchasing a Pre-Order Pack will enable you to see the relevant add-ons in future months, if you'd like to grab them on an individual basis!

In addition, the work that goes into creating these items is definitely not "thrown away" - the pets and mounts you see will have variants in-game as NPCs for you to fight/befriend, the costumes/accessories can be repurposed as NPC armor, the freeholds can take on a different appearance to fill out towns, and more - think of these cosmetics as variants for things we would need to make to bring the world of Verra to life either way!

In terms of "similar aesthetics" being available in the future, I would definitely recommend keeping an eye out for both future cosmetic sets that might suit your tastes better, or see ... Read more
