Pourquoi choisir l'accès anticipé ?

« Offering Abducted: The Night Hunters as an early access game allows me to invite the community to actively participate in its development and evolution. The game has reached a playable and satisfying state regarding mechanics, graphics, and initial narrative, but the goal is to expand and further refine the experience.

Early access enables me to improve the game based on player feedback, test new features, and adjust the balance of difficulty, resources, and story. It’s also an excellent way to identify and fix issues with community support, creating a much more polished final version. In short, early access provides a unique opportunity to build a more robust and engaging game with direct input from players, who can immerse themselves in this alien survival horror experience from the very beginning. »

Pendant combien de temps environ ce jeu sera-t-il en accès anticipé ?

« Abducted: The Night Hunters is expected to remain in early access until around late 2025. My primary goal is to complete the open-world map of Canela County, with all areas fully explorable and finalized. While the main mechanics are already solid, this early access period allows for expanding the game content, ensuring players experience the game in its entirety by the full release. »

En quoi la version finale sera-t-elle différente de la version en accès anticipé ?

« The finished version of Abducted: The Night Hunters will be an open-world game across all of Canela County. However, as development progresses, the game world will be released in parts called scenarios. Each scenario will expand the game world, introducing new challenges, enemies, and resources to enrich the survival and exploration experience. »

Le prix du jeu sera-t-il différent pendant et après l'accès anticipé ?

« The price of Abducted: The Night Hunters will likely increase after Early Access. During this phase, players are supporting the game's development, and the current price reflects this early opportunity to experience and contribute to its growth. As more scenarios, content, and features are added in the final version, the game’s value will increase, which will be reflected in its final price. »
