We&#8217;d like to see if we can build and grow a meaningful multiplayer community, which also means supporting this title with regular new content, online features, and game modes over a multi-year roadmap.<\/p>\n<p>We are interested in Early Access because we want to involve a large audience in helping to shape the future development of this game. We are planning to have a robust and polished version of the game that supports online multiplayer ready for our Early Access launch, but are very interested in involving the community to iterate and evolve the product from there &#8212; what online multiplayer features, game modes, or content are players enjoying that we should expand upon? What feels missing that we should consider prioritizing next? We expect our early access period to help us answer many of these questions to shape the future development roadmap of this game for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Feeling lucky?
