Zal het spel anders geprijsd worden tijdens en na vroegtijdige toegang?

'Yes. We acknowledge that for the intitial release not all content and features are not fully integrated, so we decided to lower the price for the start of Early Access.

Hoe zijn jullie van plan de community te betrekken bij het ontwikkelproces?

'The community and its feedback have played a major role since the start of development. The motto "By fans. For fans. With fans." is not an empty phrase. During the Early Access phase, we want to use the feedback from all players (whether franchise veterans or newcomers) to turn our vision into a football management experience that does justice to the renowned series.'
