Since I’m the new guy, they made me deliver the corporate news. The news is this: GTTOD is finally leaving Early Access and the price is going up.
Let's just get to it.
When this game entered Early Access, it was $19.99. Also, the world was younger. I was younger. You were younger - or, perhaps not born. On Sunday the 23rd, the base price becomes $29.99.
Why? Good question, Oswald. Because the 1.0 update isn't just a patch; it's practically a new game. Here is what is waiting for you:
The 3rd Altitude: A 33% expansion of the game with an entirely new never before seen environment that is MASSIVE.
A Real Story: Full human voice acting, actual cutscenes, and deep item lore.
A Brand New OST: I have been listening to it on repeat.
An Arsenal Overhaul: New guns, alt fire modes, melee weapons, items, ultimate abilities, and upgraded BABE version for every single weapon.
New Things to Kill: The true Final Boss, new boss fights, redesigned boss fights, and new enemies.
Next-Level Polish: A massive visual and lighting overhaul, a new meta progression system, an inventory, dialed-in movement with new tech, and native controller support.
Yeah but... Why not change it the day 1.0 arrives? Yet another good question, Oswald. Because then we can't give you a Launch Discount due to Steam's rules on the timing of price changes - and we want to do that! Speaking of... We aren't just raising the price today without warning (Sure - it's not much of a warning... but I'm the newest member of the team. Cut me some slack!). We want you to see the value before we raise the price. With that said.
Right now, you can play Chapters 1 & 2, and some of Chapter 3 in the Open Beta. It's free to play. Sign up and try it out before the price hike and decide for yourself if you want to get it now, or wait until Launch. That's coming soon. More about that later.
If you want GTTOD at the Early Access price, this weekend is your absolute last chance. See you in the Open Beta. <3 Oswald
Oh.. and uh. Andrew told me to invite you to discord. Ya know - if you're into chatting about the game with other people that like chatting about the game.
