Why Early Access?

“Dead by Instinct is a game built on tension, teamwork, and unpredictable player behaviour. Early Access gives us the opportunity to shape the game alongside the community — refining the core mechanics, evolving the dinosaur and survivor experience, and expanding the world based on how you play.

We want to make sure that every decision you make in-game truly matters.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to release the game into Early Access at first. From there, we expect it to remain in Early Access for the near future. This will give us time to expand and balance, refine the procedural level system, and implement player feedback before the full release.”

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

“We’re approaching development one step at a time, focusing on stability, replay ability, and keeping the survival horror core intact.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is stable and tense, but not yet complete. You can expect occasional bugs, balance tweaks, and evolving gameplay systems as we continue to develop and test with the community.”

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

“We plan to keep the price the same through early access and full realise. Players who join during Early Access will get full access to all updates at no additional cost.”

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

“Community feedback is at the centre of how we build Dead by Instinct. We’ll be actively listening through:

Regular community polls and development updates

We want this to be a game shaped not just by its systems — but by its players.”
