What is First Time User Experience (FTUE) in playtesting?

FTUE is the study of a player’s initial interaction with a game. In playtesting, it focuses on analyzing a new player’s reactions and understanding during the game’s introductory phases, such as tutorials and early levels.Β 

The goal is to identify any usability challenges or obstacles that could affect long-term player engagement, ensuring an engaging start for first-time players!
