Early Access Program

Welcome​

Welcome to the GameVault Early Access Program! This exclusive opportunity allows you to be among the first to experience upcoming GameVault updates before they are released to the public. As a member of this special group, you'll have the chance to explore new features ahead of time. However, please keep in mind that these early releases may not be as stable as our regular versions. Your active participation and feedback are crucial in helping us refine and improve everything before the official release for everyone.

Participation Requirements​

To join the Early Access Program, please make sure to meet the following requirements:

  • Actively participate in the designated Discord channel and follow the pinned messages.
  • Have GameVault installed from the Microsoft Store and be logged in with your Microsoft Account. If you haven't installed it yet, you can get it here.
  • If required in the current phase: Run a GameVault Server with the phalcode/gamevault-backend:early-access image. (Only use this image if all users on your server are participating in the Early Access Program and have been accepted as testers, as it may cause issues!)

How to Join​

To become part of the program, follow these simple steps:

  1. Fill out the Application Form.
  2. Wait for the early access phase to begin. Details will be shared in the exclusive Discord channel.

Important Information​

  • The Early Access Program has limited slots, with priority given to Supporters and Trusted Members.
  • If you are accepted and later found not meeting the requirements, you may be removed from future testing, allowing the next applicant on our list to take your place.
