Interested players can now sign themselves up for the Fullmetal Alchemist Mobile closed beta test. If you weren’t aware, this mobile game was announced as part of the series’ 20th anniversary celebrations.
Sign ups for the Fullmetal Alchemist Mobile closed beta test can be done via the application form provided through the terms and conditions page here. From now until 22 March 2022, 23:59 JST, the sign ups will be open for the test that will accept 6000 total players (3000 each for Android and iOS). The test itself is scheduled for 31 March 2022, 17:00 JST to 8 April 2022, 11:59 JST.
The recommended specifications provided are:
- iOS: OS 13.0 (iPhone 8 or later), 2GB RAM or more
- Android: OS 8.0 or later, 64-bit compatible, 4GB RAM or more, Snapdragon 835 or higher
The site notes that these specifications may be different when the game actually launches, currently slated for Summer 2022. Additionally, there are quite a number of guidelines with regards to sharing information from the beta, which you may want to take note of should you be able to get in.
First impressions make it look like a fighting game, though the absence of an actual UI in the trailer makes it hard to tell if it would be some kind of tag team battler. Edward can alchemize weapons, and of course, characters have their flashy finishers. As for the story, there’s only a preview of the early arcs and a glimpse of the final one, so who knows what else they could put in. At time of writing, it’s a little unclear if Arakawa will be supervising the script.
