Why Early Access?

“Ancient Dungeon is already a playable VR roguelite beloved by many and rated highly, but we’re continuing to expand and refine it. Early Access lets us hear from players while we work on new content, improve existing systems, and push out regular free updates. Community feedback helps us decide what needs the most attention.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We're aiming to leave Early Access in 2027. Ancient Dungeon already offers tens of hours of replayability and has grown significantly through years of regular updates. While many players feel the game already offers a complete experience, we still have a few more things we'd like to add and polish before officially calling it finished!”

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

“For the full release, we'd like to make Ancient Dungeon bigger, better, and more replayable!

We're planning to expand the dungeon with more areas to explore, alternate paths, new enemies, bosses, items, and gameplay mechanics like destruction. We'd also like to introduce additional challenges, expand modding capabilities, and continue improving the overall experience based on community feedback. The final addition will be a new final boss beyond the current one.

These are our current goals, and our plans may evolve throughout Early Access as development progresses and we gather more player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Ancient Dungeon has an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam and already offers an experience many players consider complete. Since launching into Early Access in 2021, we've spent five years adding new content, features, and improvements, and we're still not done!

The game is playable solo or in online co-op with up to three friends. Every run takes you through a different dungeon, with physical VR combat, floors to explore, bosses to fight, and weapons and relics to find. There's plenty to unlock between runs, too, plus Hard Mode if you want a tougher challenge.”

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

“There are no plans to increase the price of the game after the early access phase.”

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

“We listen to all feedback the community has about the game to improve our development process.

Players that want to leave feedback, suggest new features, or report bugs are always welcome.
