Why Early Access?

“Vampirium: 1997 is a systems-driven simulation game, the development of which benefits immensely from player feedback. Releasing into early access allows us to better respond to what the community wants, be it new content, quality of life updates, or simple bug fixes. Vampirium: 1997 will be a better game because of your involvement!

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“This is difficult to predict, but we will share updates consistently and openly. We will be updating the Early Access roadmap as we go, which you can find on the Steam page, in Steam News posts (be sure to follow the game to get those in your feed), and on our socials. Once we’ve got the game into its best possible state for release, we’ll announce the full launch. We expect this to take around two years. In the meantime, we'll keep reviewing feedback so we know what you want to see from 1.0!

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

“Throughout Early Access, the game will receive regular content updates that can be followed on our roadmap. The full version of Vampirium: 1997 will add several new levels, each introducing new objects, powers, and an increased overall level cap. We will also continue to improve the game through optimization, bug fixes, and implementing player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access will include several locations that allow players to explore the game’s systems and experience the variety of interactions possible so far.”

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

“The price for Vampirium: 1997 will increase after Early Access. The lower Early Access price is in appreciation of the community's continued feedback and help in making the game live forever through their blood and sacrifice.
