Why Early Access?

“Join us as we shape World War Forex together! While the game is fully playable and functional, it’s still in its early stages and lacks custom graphics and audio. This Early Access release allows us to gather your valuable feedback to fine-tune gameplay balance and introduce exciting new features, including additional unit types, resources, city actions, and more.

The current asking price reflects the costs of maintaining a centralized server for seamless gameplay and helps support ongoing development as we grow with our player base. By joining now, you’ll have the unique opportunity to influence the game’s evolution and be part of an exciting journey to completion.

Your support and input will help make World War Forex something truly special—thank you for being part of the process!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Get ready for an early taste of the action! Our official Steam release date is scheduled for early 2025. The game's core mechanics are already in place, but we're working hard to fine-tune the gameplay, enhance the artwork and audio, and improve the overall aesthetic, before adding additional features, units, resources and building types. Join us on this exciting journey as we bring the game to life!”

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

“The purpose of the Early Access version of the game is to identify bugs, balance game mechanics, and gather feedback from players. Upon achieving a well-balanced and enjoyable experience for players, the plan is to then enhance the game's visuals with custom & aesthetically pleasing art assets before officially launching out of Early Access.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“All the features listed in the About sections is currently playable.
Players, when starting the game for the first time, will automatically be added to a server. Players are able to build their settlements, build buildings, build units, trade on the forex market, fight battles, communicate with other players, create basic trade agreements, compete on multiple leaderboards.

While the game is fully playable in terms of functionality, it currently completely lacks audio (this is to be implemented later during development) and makes use of stock asset-store assets.”

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

“The price will increase gradually as we add additional content. If the player-count is too low, then we may decrease the price to gain active players, before raising the price again once the server reaches its rated capacity.
If the game is too cheap, the server will be overwhelmed; if too expensive, there won't be enough players.”

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

“The community's input will be essential to help balance the game properly and, suggest what features are to be implemented next. We hope that players with insight in Forex trading would give their suggestions on the financial mechanics of the game as well.
The best way to contact us is via the community forum on Steam. This way all suggestions (and complaints) would be public for everyone to see, and to comment on. Transparency would be the ideal way to have all of the active players provide their input.
