Why Early Access?

“We want players to jump into The Other Side while it’s still growing and help shape where it goes. Getting the game into the hands of real players early lets us see what works, what doesn’t, and what ideas the community brings to the table. Together, we can make this one of the most immersive and terrifying ghost-hunting experiences out there.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We're currently aiming for a full release in Q2 of 2027, but this is an estimate rather than a firm deadline. As development continues, our timeline may shift based on the needs of the game, additional features, and community feedback. Our priority is to make sure The Other Side is ready for a full release, rather than rushing to meet a specific date.”

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

“The full version will build on everything that’s already here. More ghosts, more maps, more equipment, and more ways to play. We’ll also continue adding seasonal events, challenge modes, and quality-of-life improvements inspired by what players want most. Every major update will bring new reasons to jump back in with your friends.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Other Side already offers a fully playable cooperative multiplayer experience for up to six players, featuring a growing collection of haunted locations, a wide variety of ghost types, and two distinct gameplay objectives: Identify and Cleanse. Players can investigate paranormal activity using an extensive selection of equipment, customize their characters, unlock and decorate multiple headquarters, and upgrade their equipment as they progress. We've continued to expand the game throughout Early Access with new locations, ghost types, equipment, gameplay mechanics, customization options, and quality-of-life improvements.

While there's already plenty to experience, development is very much ongoing. We're actively refining existing systems, expanding gameplay features, and introducing new content as we work toward our full release.”

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

“As The Other Side continues to grow throughout Early Access, we may adjust the price to reflect the additional content, features, and improvements introduced along the way. While no specific price changes are currently being announced, we want to be transparent with our community. If we decide to increase the price, we'll communicate those plans well in advance so players have plenty of notice.”

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

“Our community has always been a huge part of The Other Side, and that's not going to change. We're players too, and you'll regularly find us in-game, chatting in Discord, answering questions, and listening to feedback. We actively encourage players to share their ideas, report bugs, and tell us what they love (and what they don't). Community feedback has already helped shape many of our updates, from QoL improvements, to changes in existing gameplay mechanics.

We're a small development team, and being able to interact directly with the people playing our game is something we genuinely value. While we can't promise to implement every suggestion, we do take feedback seriously. The Other Side isn't just being built for our community. It's being built alongside them, and we intend to keep it that way.”
