Leaving Early Access: 2027

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access has given us the opportunity get player feedback during the development. End State has been in the making since 2015 (the full story is at fingersquad.com/endstate/story). ”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect the early access to end in early 2027. Our original one-year estimate was too optimistic and currently the early access has lasted almost four years. ”

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

“Our plans for version 1.0:
• Complete tactical and strategic mechanics
• Finished story and missions
• Balanced progression, economy and difficulty
• Polish and optimization
• Achievements and localization”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version features core tactical and strategic mechanics, 50 different missions to play, around 40 weapons and a selection of different gear. Story, character progression and strategic layer are mostly there but still work in progress.”

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

“The game will be cheaper for our Early Access supporters. We plan to raise the price as we add new features and content to the game.”

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

“The game has been developed in silence for too long and we want to start a new chapter with the community involved in our development.”
