Airsoft Online Opens Free Steam Beta, Runs Until October 26
Pixomnia is testing whether a shooter that drops hit markers, adds wind drift to projectiles, and makes players call their own hits can sustain a competitive audience before the game's planned 2026 launch.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
Pixomnia Studio opened the free open beta test for Airsoft Online on October 8 on PC via Steam. The build supports Japanese display and a Japanese server, and runs Team Deathmatch, Capture the Flag, Domination, and Stronghold on indoor and outdoor maps at up to 6 vs. 6. Matches use airsoft guns, selectable BBs, and a fluid-dynamics-based physics system. The beta runs until October 26, with release planned within 2026.
The beta build keeps health and hit markers as optional settings, so a match can be played with neither. Player characters who are shot raise a hand and report "Hit!" themselves.
Guns are split by category, including assault rifles, shotguns, and sniper rifles, with spring-powered and gas blowback mechanisms reproduced. BBs come in multiple types chosen alongside a main weapon, a secondary pistol, grenades, and smoke grenades in an early version of the loadout editor. Saved loadouts can be tested at an indoor shooting range offline.
