Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Aethelria: Cross-Dimensions is entering Early Access to gather player feedback while continuing development of the game's content, balance, and features. The current version provides the core gameplay experience, allowing players to help shape character balance, gameplay mechanics, online play, and overall polish. Community feedback will play an important role in helping us refine the game as development continues.

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently anticipate Early Access lasting approximately 12–24 months. Development timelines may change as we continue improving the game based on player feedback and ongoing development. Our priority is delivering a polished and content-rich experience rather than adhering to a fixed schedule.”

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

“The Early Access version focuses on the core gameplay experience and currently includes 7 playable characters. Throughout development, we plan to significantly expand the game's content and overall scope. Planned additions include increasing the roster to over 16 unique playable characters, introducing new game modes, additional power-ups, expanded environments, improved visuals and animations, gameplay refinements, progression systems, quality-of-life improvements, and a robust story mode that explores the world of Aethelria: Cross-Dimensions. The full version is intended to provide a substantially larger and more complete experience than the initial Early Access release.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current Early Access version includes the core gameplay systems and online multiplayer experience with 7 playable characters. Players can compete using the game's fundamental mechanics while helping us identify bugs, improve balance, optimize performance, and provide feedback on gameplay. While fully playable, the game remains under active development as additional content, polish, and features are added over time.”

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

“Yes. We plan to offer Aethelria: Cross-Dimensions at a lower price during Early Access as a thank you to early supporters who help shape the game's development. As significant new content, features, characters, game modes, and overall improvements are added throughout development, we plan to gradually increase the price. The full release is expected to have a higher price that reflects the expanded scope and content of the completed experience.”

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

“Community feedback is an important part of our development process. We'll actively review player feedback, bug reports, gameplay suggestions, balance discussions, and feature requests through the Steam Community Hub and other community channels. Player input will help guide balancing decisions, prioritize improvements, identify issues, and influence future updates throughout Early Access.”

About This Game

A fast-paced sci-fi fantasy arena shooter where heroes from across dimensions unite against a rising cosmic corruption.

Step into the fractured universe of Aethelria, where dimensional rifts have shattered the balance between worlds. Legendary fighters, elite guardians, and rogue warriors are pulled into a conflict that spans galaxies, timelines, and realities themselves.

Fight as a colorful roster of heroes wielding futuristic weapons, elemental powers, and high-speed combat abilities — while facing two terrifying beings who seek to consume the multiverse in chaos.

At the center of the darkness stand:

  • Nyxariel — the fallen empress of void energy, armed with devastating purple-tech weaponry and corrupted dimensional powers.

  • Malzethion — a ruthless conqueror clad in infernal armor whose reign threatens every surviving realm.

Only the united heroes of Aethelria can stop them.

  • Fast, fluid combat inspired by arcade shooters and hero arena games

  • Dimension-hopping worlds filled with vibrant sci-fi fantasy environments
