01

The official boundary

The Open Beta listing says currency, weapons, Shells, collectibles, and other items reset at launch. It also describes the Flayed Harbinger cosmetic reward and a Prologue-skip option after reaching Marrow Keep.

02

What the Beta is still useful for

Use it to learn the opening combat rhythm, Beacon interaction, early landmarks, and Shell feel. Switch to retail evidence for exact locations and values.

03

Do not copy old saves blindly

Protect the retail save before importing or modifying files. Follow official support guidance instead of a forum workaround.

04

Keep the Beta for practice, not inventory claims

The Beta still has value: learn the opening combat rhythm, Beacon interaction, early landmarks, and which Shell mechanic feels natural. That is practice data, not a promise that the same item or price exists in retail.

The official boundary is simple: currency, weapons, Shells, collectibles, and other items reset. Track the Flayed Harbinger cosmetic and the Marrow Keep Prologue-skip note separately, then start retail route pages from current evidence.
