Why Early Access?

“Our goal is to make a fun and challenging dungeon-diving experience for players. We are consistently gathering player feedback and building an experience that is fair and exciting. We aim to be transparent and communicative with the community and look forward to getting to 1.0!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Roughly by Q4 2027, Plagueborn will remain in Early Access until we feel its the best version possible. We have a vision in mind for the 1.0 release of the game but this will change as we receive player feedback and community sentiment!”

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

“We plan to greatly expand on this foundation, including:

- Additional weapon types and abilities to master
- More dungeon themes, enemy varieties, and unique bosses
- Expanded progression systems with new passives, relics, and character customization
- Deeper worldbuilding with new regions, lore, and NPC interactions
- Quality-of-life features and balancing informed directly by player feedback

Our goal is to take the polished, replayable core of Plagueborn and grow it into a richer, more expansive roguelike experience for full release.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of Plagueborn already offers a complete and replayable core experience. Players can expect:

-1 dungeon featuring 4 challenging floors
-Around 350 lootable items to discover
-5 distinct weapon types and 20 unique abilities
-Over 50 unlockable passives to customize your build
-Epic boss fight capping off the dungeon
-A meta progression system that rewards long-term play
-Fully functional multiplayer co-op

This foundation captures the essence of Plagueborn’s roguelike loop while leaving plenty of room to expand with new content, systems, and polish as development continues.”

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

“We expect the price to increase slightly at the 1.0 release to reflect the added content and polish, this is also a way to reward early adopters during the Early Access period.”

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

“We love getting feedback and interacting with our community, any and all players are encouraged and welcome to join our discord community! Our Discord is a great place to meet other players and group up to play!”
