Miksi Early Access?

We're bringing Temtem: Swarm into Early Access so that we can work with our amazing community to help shape the game's future by gathering your invaluable feedback and suggestions. We’ve already got plans for what we want a 1.0 to look like, and we’ll be adding content throughout EA, but we’re sure we'll also learn along the way and discover new exciting features to add too!

The bullet heaven genre really works well with EA because of all the fine-tuning and tweaking that needs to happen to refine gameplay, balance the world, and ensure Temtem: Swarm is the most exciting and engaging it can be. We’re looking forward to that challenge!

This isn’t our first Early Access rodeo: Temtem's successful EA journey demonstrated our commitment to community-driven development. During the EA period, we actively listened to player feedback, implementing over 35 patches that included numerous features, improvements, bug fixes, and significant gameplay changes suggested by the community. This collaborative approach ensured that Temtem evolved into the engaging and polished experience it is today.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We expect Temtem: Swarm's Early Access journey to last around a year. During this time, we'll be dedicated to refining the game based on your feedback, ensuring it's the most enjoyable experience possible. Our goal is to introduce all the playable Tems, Maps, and Techniques that we already have planned while also incorporating your feedback before Temtem: Swarm leaves EA.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

In Temtem: Swarm's full version we plan to feature additional content, including:

• Solo Mode and Co-Op for 2 & 3 Players
  
• 13 Playable Temtem with unique Skill Trees for each
  
• 9 Maps/Arenas
  
• 18 Minibosses & 9 Final Bosses, each with unique movesets
  
• New in-game Event types
  
• 57 Gears
  
• 140 Techniques Total (26 Active, 57 Passive, 57 Synergies)
  
• Unlockable Temtem Variations - Lumas & Umbras
  
• Challenge Modes
  
• In-game Tempedia with info on all Tems
  
• The full roster of 165 Temtem as part of the Swarm, in the form of Mini-Bosses/Final Bosses, or as playable Tems.
  
• 830 Kudos (in-game achievements)
  
• 130+ Steam Achievements

We're also committed to refining the game's balance, polish, and overall experience based on your input. Together, we'll create a Temtem adventure that exceeds your expectations for a 1.0 full release.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Temtem: Swarm's Early Access version offers a comprehensive and immersive experience, featuring everything outlined in the game's description. Here’s a list that can be slightly compared to the one above:

• 10 Minibosses & 5 Final Bosses, each with unique movesets
  
• 5 in-game Event types
  
• 37 Gears
  
• 77 Techniques Total (7 Active, 35 Passive, 35 Synergies)

The planned differences between EA and Full Release can be seen comparing the two lists above, but as we go through this journey with you all, and gather feedback, we could find more features to add!

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?
