Why Early Access?

“Vanguard Princess (Modern) is in an advanced stage of development, with its core fighting mechanics and primary gameplay modes largely completed.

Early Access allows us to involve the fighting game community in the final stages of development, focusing on character balancing, gameplay refinement, controller compatibility, performance optimization, and additional improvements based on player feedback.

Our goal is to deliver a polished and enjoyable fighting game experience while allowing players to participate in its continued development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We anticipate that Vanguard Princess (Modern) will remain in Early Access for approximately 4 weeks, with a planned full release in November 2027.

Although the majority of the core game is already developed, this period will allow us to refine gameplay balance, improve performance, enhance compatibility, and incorporate community feedback.

November 2027 is our current target rather than a guaranteed release date, and the schedule may be adjusted depending on development progress.”

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

“The full version of Vanguard Princess (Modern) is planned to offer a more refined and polished version of the existing fighting game experience.

Development priorities include improved character balancing, combat and assist mechanic adjustments, enhanced controller compatibility, optimized PC performance, improved presentation, and additional quality-of-life improvements.

We will also evaluate opportunities for additional features based on development progress and community feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Vanguard Princess (Modern) is largely complete in terms of its core fighting gameplay.

The Early Access version includes two playable characters, Story Mode, Versus Mode, and an assist-based combat system.

Players can experience the game's primary fighting mechanics while we continue improving character balance, controller support, performance, stability, and overall presentation.

Some refinements and additional features remain under development.”

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

“Vanguard Princess (Modern) is planned to launch in Early Access at $9.99 USD.

We currently intend to maintain the same $9.99 USD base price throughout Early Access and following the full release in November 2027.

Our objective is to provide a consistent and affordable experience as development continues.”

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

“Community feedback plays an important role throughout the Early Access development period.

We currently engage with players through Steam Community Discussions, announcements, bug reports, and gameplay feedback.

We actively consider suggestions related to character balancing, combat mechanics, controller compatibility, performance, and gameplay improvements.

We also intend to publish development updates and communicate our progress as we work toward the planned November 2027 full release.”
