Orbus Online, the indie studio behind MMORPG OrbusVRis working on a pretty significant expansion to the base game, dubbed OrbusVR: Reborn. While the expansion is set to launch sometime in April, owners of OrbusVR can hop in starting today for its fourth beta weekend.

The studio says in a dev blog the latest beta access period will feature new zones, a new class (Scoundrel), public events, new enemies, new missions, and more.

“Since last test we’ve made many major improvements to the game, including additional content, new Public Events, the new Scoundrel, our second dungeon, around 100 missions, and more,” Orbus Online co-founder and director Riley Dutton says.

Beta access to Reborn starts today, February 22nd, at 1:00 PM ET (local time here) and will last until Monday, February 25th. OrbusVR supports Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, although users looking to get into the beta will need to first have a copy of OrbusVR and install the beta download launcher (link).

Orbus Online says in a previous update announcing the expansion’s launch that there will be one more beta access period for owners of OrbusVR after this,taking place March 25th – April 8th.

An open beta weekend will also take place semi-concurrently on March 29th – March 31st for VR users regardless of whether they own OrbusVR or not.
