Alpha Test

The Alpha Test of HeroSmash started on 7 December 2010. It is unknown when the Alpha Test will end and when Phase 3, featuring all players with upgraded accounts in any of Artix Entertainment's games, will start.

Phase 1
"To make sure you get your first pick of character names, character creation will be open to EVERYONE who has supported our previous games"

Phase 1 was released at the same time as Phase 2. It allowed all those who had both a BattleOn! Master Account and had upgraded in any of Artix Entertainment's other games, AdventureQuest, DragonFable, MechQuest, EpicDuel and AdventureQuest Worlds.

Phase 2
"Obviously, there is not enough room for everyone, and since this is an MMO built on AQWorld's engine and resources, the most fair thing to allow do is limit this phase to players with active AQWorlds Memberships."

Released at the same time as Phase 1, Phase 2 allowed those who had an active membership in AdventureQuest Worlds to play the Alpha Test of HeroSmash. When the Alpha Test first started it had three zones, Liberty Square, Main Street and Aurora Park. There was a war going on at the time.

Phase 3
"Once the game is stable, we will open up multiple servers and begin Phase 3 where everyone who has supported us in the past will be invited to participate in the ALPHA."

Phase 3 has yet to be released, though it has been confirmed that all upgraded players in Artix Entertainment's other games will be able to play during this phase.
