“We chose Early Access to build Keepers: Fractured Realities alongside our community. Player feedback is invaluable for refining the core experience, specifically balancing the turn-based combat system, including character abilities and the difficulty of mobs and bosses.

Early Access also gives us the crucial time to iterate on the game's dialogue, narrative beats, pacing, and the overall visual quality of our environments. By involving players early, we can ensure the final product meets expectations and feels perfectly tuned.”

“The full version is planned to significantly expand upon the Early Access content.

While the Early Access version focuses on refining the core gameplay, the full release is intended to feature the complete narrative arc. This will include the entire 12-chapter main story developed during Early Access, plus an additional 4 chapters of planned side content.

These supplementary chapters are intended to act as prequel stories, further fleshing out the main cast and deepening the game's lore, providing a richer experience than the version available in Early Access.”
