為何採用搶先體驗模式？

「Maestro VR has been in intense development for several years, aiming to provide an immersive symphonic orchestra conducting experience in virtual reality. Early Access allows us to better understand the needs and preferences of our community, incorporating their feedback directly into the improvements and features we introduce. Thanks to player interaction, we have completely redesigned the conducting and gesture system, and we are now preparing the next major update that will integrate the new Musical Piece Editor (Maestro Level Editor). This ongoing feedback is essential to achieving a refined and deeply immersive gameplay experience.」

這款遊戲的搶先體驗時間大約會持續多久？

「Our goal is to release this major update—which includes the Maestro Level Editor and the new gesture system—during the first quarter of 2025. This update will be so substantial that it will pave the way for the full version of Maestro VR. Once this integration has been consolidated and polished with the community’s help, we anticipate that the game can exit Early Access.」
