Miksi Early Access?

GladiArena is an auto-battler game that emphasizes strategic depth and replayability. I aim to make this game more fun and polished by developing it together with the community.
While the core gameplay and main systems are already in place, I believe that player feedback is crucial in refining a game like this — where experimenting with different strategies and builds is key.
Through Early Access, I hope to quickly gather input from real players, improve balance, and continuously expand the game’s content to create a better experience together.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

The Early Access period is expected to last about one year, but the schedule may change depending on the development process.
During this time, I plan to improve the game’s overall quality by adjusting balance and adding new content based on user feedback.
Depending on how development progresses, the period may end up being shorter or longer, but I will continue to polish the game with the community until its full release.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

I plan to add the following features in the future:

Equipment fusion system – Combine identical gear to create higher-tier equipment

3-unit battles – Expand strategic depth with multi-unit combat

More gear types – A wider variety of weapons, armor, and skills

Game balance adjustments – Improve balance between rounds, races, and equipment

Ranked mode – Introduce seasonal rankings for competitive gameplay

During Early Access, I also intend to actively incorporate player feedback to improve UI/UX, adjust difficulty, and enhance content variety, all to raise the overall quality of the game.

The game’s direction and specific elements may be flexibly adjusted based on feedback received throughout the Early Access period.
My goal is to shape a more enjoyable and complete game together with the players.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

The current Early Access version includes the basic combat system and a limited selection of equipment, allowing players to experience the core gameplay loop centered around 1v1 battles.

Key features such as stat balancing, equipment enhancement, synthesis, gacha, three-unit battles, and ranked matches are still under development and will be added through future updates.
This version serves as an early build intended to test the game's structure and combat flow while collecting player feedback.

We plan to continue refining the balance and expanding content together with our players, gradually evolving GladiArena into a more complete and enjoyable game.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

The price may increase when the full version is released.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?

We plan to gather player feedback primarily through the Steam Community and reflect it in balance adjustments and content development.
If needed, we may also open a Discord server or expand to other communication channels.
We value being able to quickly receive diverse opinions from players and improving the game together.
