You are now able to access the T-Beta P1 if you follow these steps:

2. Choose the Beta tab on your menu, and select the Beta branch.

Important known issue:
Unfortunately, some issues slipped into the technical beta 1 build. You can find a list of the known issues on the Steam forums.
One of those issues will cause your game creation to fail from time to time, displaying the following error “Your game couldn't be created, please try again later.”. However, you should be able to press the “Play” button again and ask for another game creation until it succeeds and you join the game.
Skills
All skills will be available for your character when you enter the game, you just have to go in your skill tree to find them, and drag and drop them on your action bar.
We wanted to add more diversity for the bowmen as well. Therefore, we decided to add another skill for this phase to allow you to enjoy a bit more the bow gameplay.
Phantom Blades(previously Bladeslinger) has been totally revamped.

Enjoy!
This phase 1 will be very important to us since it’s the first time that we implement Multiplayer for Wolcen: Lords of Mayhem. Your feedback will allow us to fix major issues and prepare for phase 2.
During this phase, we plan to implement more weapons, skills, and enemies, so you can have a new experience while you’re testing the game. Pistols, daggers, and shields will be back!
We will tell you more in the upcoming weeks about this phase and its content.
Have fun and thank you for your patience!
