BIG NEWS!!! The Blackout Club is now available in Early Access on Steam!
It’s been a wonderful experience rapidly iterating in gameplay through the beta test with so many of you. If you’re someone who likes Beta Testing but can’t stand Early Access we understand and thank you for your time. Your Beta T-shirt will be waiting for you. Hopefully you’ll be back with us in 2019 when the final launch happens.
We are doing this early access test to bring more people in while we still have time before our full launch window so we can stress test the gameplay with a larger group of club members than we could with a finite number of beta keys. The game will still be updated on a regular basis and now that we feel more confident about the fundamentals of basic gameplay we will be adding in new missions, challenges, areas, and enemies. In today’s build you will also see a new transition movie between Intro and the Hideout, new navigation help, and (finally) the actual non-temp Sleepwalker VO.
We are launching the game this way at a greatly reduced price (plus a launch discount) today on PC. As we get closer to our planned full launch in 2019 the price will increase (in a way that reflects new content/polish/bug fixing)
It was hard to keep silent on this announcement as we like discussing things with everyone here on the Discord. We wanted to do the announcement right, though, which involves making sure we have a new trailer and screenshots, etc.
So without further ado here is that Early Access announce trailer!
Whether you are someone interested in meddling with The Shape during the Early Access or if you wait until full launch, we still want to say THANK YOU for checking us out! Hope to see you around the neighborhood!
Sincerely, all of us here at Question
