How much will the game cost?
  • During the Early Access period, it costs approximately $24.99 USD.
What will the Early Access build include?
  • The first act of our first story arc as well as multiplayer content like races, riding clubs, and more. This is somewhere in the ballpark of 8-12 hours of gameplay.
Will the price change in the future or will there be additional costs?
  • We want to continue to deliver great story content, and as a small studio with no major publisher backing us, we'll be using a monthly subscription system to do so. Players who join us during the Early Access period will get a lifetime subscription.
  • We don't want to use the types of monetisation practises common in free to play games - we don't think they're the right way to build a healthy and engaged community.
Are there any benefits to purchasing Early Access?
  • Yes! We want to reward our early adopters. Anyone who purchases the game during Early Access will get a lifetime subscription with no additional, future subscription costs. We believe early adopters deserve recognition since y'all will be the ones helping us fund and guide later stages of the game's development.
What would you get with the subscription?
  • Finally, subscribers get access to exclusive cosmetic content and new story "episodes" on an ongoing basis.
  • We plan to add two additional Acts to our first story Arc across the first year of the game's live services.
  • Over time, our goal is to add new Horse breeds and horses as additional DLC.
