Why Early Access?

“Our goal is to make Wayfinder the best game it can be, and we believe that working closely with our community during Early Access and beyond will help us achieve that. By receiving feedback and collaborating with our players, we can ensure that the quality of the game and player experience is top-notch.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Though subject to change, Early Access will last around six months. We aim to launch the full free-to-play version of the game after two full seasons of Early Access content.”

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

“The core gameplay mechanics and functionality will remain largely the same. However, we plan to add more content to the full free-to-play version, including additional biomes, enemies, weapons, and Wayfinders. We will also incorporate player feedback from Early Access into the full release of the game.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“In Early Access players can explore six fully developed biomes and engage in seasonal content. There is a variety of weapons, characters, and more for players to discover and unlock. Early Access is being used to refine gameplay systems, hear from the community on what is important to them, and to make sure that we have a solid and fun foundation to build on for years to come.”

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

“During Early Access, players will need to purchase a Founder’s Pack. After the full release, Wayfinder will be free-to-play, but there will be an in-game store featuring cosmetics, boosters and items as well as a seasonal Reward Tower that can be purchased via “Runesilver”. With few exceptions, everything that you’re able to purchase in-game players will be able to access by simply playing the game and gathering the resources needed. The Founder's Packs for Early Access include exclusive content that will not be available after the full release.”

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

“We are committed to involving our community in the development process through various channels, including Discord, social media, a Feature Upvote system and regular updates on our website. We encourage players to share their feedback, suggestions, and bug reports with us, and we're already taking this feedback into account when making changes and improvements to the game.”
