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.
Being in alpha, those who do pay $50 to test Ashes of Creation will experience “frequent updates and realm wipes, unstable builds, incomplete content, and ongoing balance adjustments,” according to the game’s Steam early-access FAQ.
“Early-access participants should approach this phase as a testing experience, not a finished product,” Intrepid states.
Purchasing the early-access version of Ashes of Creation does come with a few other additions, including a cosmetic cloak and one month of game time
