Why Early Access?

“Vanguard Exiles is a complex and rich strategy experience from the mind of Richard Garfield; a new style of autobattler that represents a board game that can only exist in digital form. As we embark on this journey, we want to work with the community to help us shape the game and define the road ahead. As a bunch of experienced game developers who have formed an indie studio, we at The Tea Division appreciate the importance of feedback from the community to help create a better experience for everyone.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We estimate being in Early Access between six months to a year. In that timeframe, we expect to develop features like Single player campaign and Squad rankings, including more Faction and world content.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We will be releasing Early Access with PvP Multiplayer. Over the course of Early Access, we want to work with the community to build features like Single Player Campaign, Leaderboards and Rankings, and define the best way for ownership of Squads.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access will be released with 3 factions and a fully functional Multiplayer experience.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We haven’t finalised our pricing structure. We plan to gradually raise the price as we ship new content and features but rest assured that we will ensure that our loyal fans are rewarded for their support over this journey.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We would like to invite the community to seek feedback via forums, twitch etc. Our intent is to use these channels to run playtests and interviews and understand what the players are looking for.
Our initial point for collecting all feedback will be through Steam Forums.”
