Wozu Early Access?

„Grimm Harvest is a game built with ambitious goals—to redefine what a survival MMORPG can be. We believe that player feedback is an essential ingredient in creating a truly unforgettable experience. By entering Early Access, we aim to invite our community into the development process, ensuring the game evolves into a polished and deeply engaging world that reflects the dreams and ideas of the players who live in it.

Our team is committed to delivering a survival game that combines freedom, danger, and creativity into a cohesive and thrilling experience. Early Access allows us to:

Gather valuable feedback on core systems such as taming, combat, and crafting.
Balance gameplay mechanics and refine our expansive skill trees and talent systems.
Expand content based on player priorities, including new animals, features, and events.
This is not just about completing the game; it’s about creating a survival adventure that players will remember and cherish. Your input during Early Access will directly shape the future of Grimm Harvest, ensuring it becomes a crowning jewel in the genre.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„We anticipate that Grimm Harvest will remain in Early Access for approximately 12-18 months. This timeframe allows us to gather community feedback, refine core systems, and implement new features and content. However, our primary focus is on quality, so the exact duration may adjust based on the progress we make and the input we receive from players.“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„We aim to create the "ultimate survival game" by starting with features we are confident in delivering while iterating on more complex mechanics as development progresses. Initially, Early Access will include one handcrafted map, designed without procedural generation to provide a rich and immersive storytelling experience through our islands.

We are also exploring the development of a single-player/coop storyline as a potential future addition. However, given the scope of this project, this narrative aspect is still in its conceptual stages and will only proceed after significant progress is made on the multiplayer portion of the game.“

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The Early Access version of Grimm Harvest is fully playable and includes:

Core survival mechanics such as resource gathering, crafting, and base building.
A variety of tamable animals with unique behaviors and abilities.
The foundation of the skill tree system, allowing players to explore different specializations.
Functional combat mechanics, including melee and ranged options.
Basic NPC interactions, quests, and events.
While the game is stable and offers hours of gameplay, it is still in active development. Players may encounter bugs or incomplete systems, and not all planned content is available yet.“
