Map of Alpha-1 testing zone.^[1]^[2] Afbeelding tegoed: Axiom: Angelcry

The Alpha One map including nodes, dungeons, quest givers, POI, teleporters, and camps will be explorable! Note that this is only a small portion of the world of Verra.^[3]

Alpha-1 testing tropical zone featuring a war beast and a tribe of pigmy goblins.^[4]

This is a rather large tropical area; and what we use some of the creatures for is kind of like establishing character for different parts of this tropical place. So that even though it's the same biome, it feels different when you are going from place to place based on what's there and how those things are interacting with the environment.^[5] – Jeffrey Bard

Alpha-1 testing takes place in a zone to the north west of the world map.^[6] This zone has many islands and a mainland area.^[7]

The Alpha-1 starting area is set in the ruins of an Pyrian divine gateway.^[8]
There are 12 different (sub)zones in the Alpha-1 testing location.^[5]
The Alpha-1 was approximately 70 km² of playable area.^[9]
- This was previously estimated to be approximately 100 km² in size.^[5]^[7] This is about 17% of the total world size.^[10]
- Previous estimates range between 20-25% of the map.^[5]^[11]^[12]
- Traversing the width of the zone (10 km) on a mount would take about 30 minutes.^[13]
Alpha island (also called Alpha-0 island) was the first open-world testing zone for Alpha-1 participants.^[14]
There are approximately 4 biomes in Alpha-1: Flood plains, Sahara (Desert), Snowy mountains, Forest.^[15]^[16]
- A tropics biome was added for the December 2020 Alpha-1 preview tests.^[6]^[4]^[5]
Temporary teleportation points will be present in early tests until ships are introduced later in the alpha testing.^[17]
