Why Early Access?

“The core gameplay (real-time combat, character progression, exploring the jianghu, and basic living activities) is already playable, while the story, maps, and systems are still being expanded. We want players to jump in early and report issues with balance, quests, and controls so we can polish progression, combat, and everyday life before the full release. During Early Access we will keep adding content and adjust priorities based on community feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan for Early Access to last about 12 to 24 months. The exact end date depends on story and systems completion and on player feedback; we are not committing to a fixed date. After we reach the content scope we consider complete and finish major polish, we will move the game to full release.”

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

“The Early Access build already includes the early main story, real-time martial-arts combat, attribute and equipment progression, living activities, and a relatively complete jianghu loop. For the full version we plan to: complete the main story and add more side quests; expand maps and interactive locations; enrich festivals and daily life (such as traditional holiday activities, subject to what actually ships); deepen how identity and player choices affect what comes next; and keep improving controls, balance, and stability. Specific features may change with development and feedback, and we do not guarantee that any one feature will be included.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access content is still in development. Combat, progression, and parts of the jianghu and living systems already run, but the story, maps, and systems are not yet at the standard we intend to sell publicly. We will not release the main game as Early Access until content and stability meet our playable bar. When we do, the store page will accurately describe what is available, and we will continue to update.”

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

“We plan to raise the price when the game leaves Early Access or when major new content launches, and we will announce any change on the store page in advance. Players who purchase during Early Access will not have to pay extra for content they already own. Prices are shown in local currency and may differ by region; the Steam store listing is the authority.”

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

“We plan to use Steam Discussions and patch notes to collect crash reports and feedback on balance and quests. Feasible suggestions will be considered when we prioritize updates. We do not promise to implement every request; major direction changes will be communicated in patch notes.”
