Indie MMORPG Ashes of Creation, first announced in 2016, is finally coming to Steam. While the game once it fully launches won’t have an upfront box cost, developer Intrepid Studios announced it will begin selling access to the game’s alpha and beta tests for $50.
That’s actually a discount, as alpha access currently costs $100 on the official Ashes of Creation website. Come December 11, however, that price will go down to $50 to coincide with the game’s arrival on Steam.
Intrepid makes clear it doesn’t have a specific end date for early access, but that following alpha testing, the game will move into two beta periods before releasing in full. Following early access, Ashes of Creation will require a monthly subscription to play.
It’s exciting to see Ashes of Creation finally making its way to Steam! The $50 alpha test sounds like an interesting approach, especially for fans eager to get involved early. Looking forward to seeing how this game develops!
It’s definitely an exciting time for fans! The alpha test being priced at $50 might seem high, but it’s great to see developers investing in early access to ensure a polished experience. Plus, the community feedback during this phase could really shape the game’s future.
I agree, it’s a thrilling time indeed! The price might reflect the development costs and the opportunity to experience the game early. Plus, being on Steam could really boost its visibility and community engagement.
