Miksi Early Access?

We have been developing Starfinder: Afterlight together with our community since the very beginning, through Kickstarter and beyond. That is why Early Access felt like the natural next step for us. Sharing the game early will allow us to gather valuable feedback from our players and to keep improving and polishing it as we move towards full release.

Miten kauan peli tulee arviolta olemaan Early Access -vaiheessa?

We expect the game to remain in Early Access for approximately one year (until Q4 2027).
This timeframe may change depending on development progress and player feedback.

Millä tavoin lopullinen versio tulee eroamaan Early Access -versiosta?

Early Access includes Act 1 only, approximately 10 hours of story. Additional classes and ancestries will roll out during Early Access through updates, ahead of full release. We plan for the full version to add:

• Act 2 and Act 3, continuing the story through to its conclusion
• The last companion joining the roster
• Expanded character creator options and character progression
• More locations, encounters, and enemies
• Refined balance and performance
• Additional systems and quality-of-life features shaped by player feedback

Act 1 is fully playable, with all the quests, combat encounters, and mechanics that make up its 10 hours of content. The full release will continue directly from there, carrying the complete three-act story.

Mikä on Early Access -version tila tällä hetkellä?

Early Access is not the full game. It's Act 1, a slice of the story, but only the first part of a longer campaign.

The Early Access version contains approximately 10 hours of gameplay and includes:

• The first act of the game, from your arrival on Akiton through recruiting your companions and the end of act1.
• Core combat and progression systems, from level 1 to 3
• A first version of the character creator to build your own character
• Three companions to recruit: Preach, Kole, and Sterling (more will be added through updates during Early Access)
• Three classes available: Soldier, Mystic, and Solarian (Operative, Envoy, and Witchwarper will be added through Early Access updates)
• Ancestries: Human, Ysoki, Vesk, Shirren, and Lashunta (Android and Kasatha will be added through EA updates)
• Full voice over

Through updates we'll be adding more companions, ancestries, and classes, but Act 2 and Act 3 will only be available at full release. As with any Early Access title, players should also expect ongoing balance changes and continued improvements until full release.

Muuttuuko pelin hinta Early Access -vaiheen jälkeen?

Yes. We plan to offer Starfinder: Afterlight at a lower price during Early Access, both to reflect its current scope and to reward players who choose to support development early.

Miten yhteisö otetaan mukaan kehitysprosessiin?
