5 days Counting Down! The Five Most Asked Important Questions of Early Access
[h2]Howdy![/h2]
We're so excited! Only 5 more days until launch! Early Access will be here very soon! Are you ready?
We tried our best to answer most asked questions of the early access from you, and please find out below; If you have other questions that aren't covered or want to have a deeper conversation with us, please join our Discord server. We can talk more there!
[h3]How much will the game cost? Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?[/h3]
Sandrock will launch in early access first, and the early access price is $24.99; yes, purchasing the retail copy of the game in Early Access is cheaper than buying it on its full launch day. The Early access player doesn't need to buy it again, the game will automatically upgrade to the full launch version.
[h3]Multiplayer is only available for certain Kickstarter tier, but how long until its available for everyone? And more about the multiplayer?[/h3]
The early access version released on May 26 does not include the multiplayer mode. We are planning to test the multiplayer once or twice in this summer. But we're still working on the details on how to register it (may not open for everyone at the early beta testing stage), please keep your eyes on us, and we'll let you know more about the multiplayer testing later. Once the multiplayer gets stable, we will open a time-limited public test to all early access users. All in all, the multiplayer is estimated to be added to Sandrock later this year.
The multiplayer mode can support 4 players in an open world map, separate from the single-player map. Players will be able to work, fight, and dungeon dive together in a multiplayer-specific world with missions and storylines. The multiplayer storyline is different from the current events of the single player storyline. You can view it as an alternative compressed timeline that chronicles what happens before the player arrives in Sandrock in single player.
[h3]Will the Voice acting be added in Early access? What's the voice acting plan for Sandrock?[/h3]
Yes, we signed a professional company called Gemiuster Media Ltd to work on the Voice Actings together; Sandrock's VA will be in Chinese and English, and EA will have some Voice Actings of main quests and a few side quests in English. We'll keep working and adding more Voice acting during the entire early access phrase. Full VA support will be available in the Full launch.
[h3]How many dating activities will there be? Will it be more than in Portia? [/h3]
We are working on the currently implemented systems first, so you may have to wait for an exact answer as to how many. You'll experience a dinner date, fireworks, sand painting, and a chat in the oasis in the Early Access version. The romance will be mostly like Portia, but romance AI is one of the things we are working to improve this time around! In addition to holding hands, we're trying to make the NPCs a little more emotional, such as getting jealous will be implemented in the future sometime after the EA launch. And in the future, Sandrock will add the feature of kids growing up to at least elementary school age. So, the full release will have more content than Portia has.
[h3]How long do you estimate it would take someone to beat the main campaign in the Early Access version?[/h3]
According to our beta players' experience, you can expect around 20-30 hours to finish the Early access main stories missions, meet around 40 unique NPCs, and experience more than 100 side quests. But it can be variable up to your play style. After you finish the main stories, you can still take a commission from the commerce, play-date with characters, complete side quests, explore the world and collect resources, enjoy holiday events and mini-games, etc.
And we know you want to learn more about Logon, the most wanted person in Sandrock...We appreciate all that interests in Logan, but we don’t have that much information about him right now. All we can say is he is a very mysterious man in Sandrock, and he is the most wanted person nearby. Come and see for yourself!
