What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“End State is still highly in development and we want to get into a loop where we collect player feedback and release monthly updates. If you want to have a complete experience, it's better to wait for the full release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Currently we expect the early access phase to last for about a year.”

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

“More refined and balanced gameplay all around and a lot of more content.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version features core tactical mechanics, about 10 different missions to play, different weapons and a selection of different gear. Character progression and strategic view (where you select missions) are still very early implementations.”

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.”
