Perché l'accesso anticipato?

“We find that Early Access is an excellent way to engage the community in providing valuable feedback and influencing the development process.
It also greatly contributes to financing the game, as all Early Access purchases help us create a bigger and better experience.”

Per quanto tempo questo gioco rimarrà in accesso anticipato?

“We currently plan for a release in Q4 2025. However, we acknowledge that many circumstances beyond our control could prolong this process. Therefore, to be cautious, we have also allowed for the development to take up to 1.5 years, extending the timeline to Q3 2026. In summary, the development period is estimated to be between 1 to 1.5 years.”

Quali saranno le differenze fra la versione completa e quella in accesso anticipato?

“The changes we have planned to implement during Early Access development are: adding a significant number of effects, improved models, combat animations, weapon techniques, explorable locations such as dungeons, villages and of course the city of Swordhaven; quests, bosses, weapons, and items, along with many balancing tweaks, fixes, and optimization improvements based on community suggestions.”

Qual è lo stato attuale della versione in accesso anticipato?

“We have finished developing the middle area of the World Map. This includes planned locations, such as background-specific dungeons for the playable backgrounds, a common dungeon, two large villages, and random encounter maps set in various biomes. Additionally, combat techniques (excluding animations) are ready, along with the main quests for this area, except for those that lead to unfinished locations.”

Il prezzo del gioco varierà durante e dopo l'accesso anticipato?

“We do not plan to raise prices. However, given the unpredictability of global economic conditions, we are keeping this option open in case of absolutely dire circumstances.”

Come pensi di coinvolgere la Comunità durante il processo di sviluppo?

“This is our utmost goal with Early Access: to create the best game we can by using our community's feedback. We will gather this feedback primarily through Steam forums, as well as our own social media and dedicated Discord chat. Our game designers will engage with the community through these channels to collect, assess, and discuss suggested additions or improvements to the game. Our experience shows that community involvement provided ideas for more than half of the additional content in our previous games, and we are confident it will do the same, if not more, for Swordhaven.”
