Happy September, witches! 🎃
Autumn is almost here and we’re so excited for burnt orange leaves, long woodland walks, and cozy nights in with a good book. There’s only one thing we’ve been eagerly anticipating more… [b]The Early Access launch of REKA on September 12th![/b]
Ahead of our release day, we wanted to cover a few of your questions we’ve seen popping up.
[h3][b]What will be the Early Access price of REKA?[/b][/h3]
For launch week, we’ll have a 10% discount. Normally, the price will be £15.99 / $19.99 / €19.99.
[h3][b]How long will REKA be in Early Access? [/b][/h3]
We can’t yet give a definitive date as this will largely depend on community feedback, however REKA will be in Early Access for the remainder of 2024, with 1.0 launching in 2025.
[h3][b]What’s the expected length of the Early Access version of the game?[/b][/h3]
REKA is being designed as a cozy, open world experience, so it's difficult to put an exact number on game length. From our own internal play sessions, we have seen a variety in playtime, depending on how each person chooses to play the game. To get the full REKA experience, our recommendation is to take your time exploring the woodlands, speaking to villagers, solving quests and building out your chicken-legged cottage. In a relaxed playthrough of the initial Early Access launch content, we'd estimate this to be roughly 6-8 hours.
We have designed REKA as a story-rich experience where players are encouraged to immerse themselves into the world, and while it's possible to rush through certain moments, doing so will naturally lead to a shorter playtime. More content, including new quests, will be coming throughout Early Access, and we hope you enjoy the beginning of REKA's journey!
[h3][b]Will there be Steam Achievements?[/b][/h3]
Steam Achievements are something we’re working on, but they won’t be ready for Day 1 of Early Access. We’ll let you know when they are being added.
[h3][b]Will REKA be Steam Deck Compatible?[/b][/h3]
REKA won't be verified for EA launch, but we are looking into Steam Deck requirements and hope to be verified within our journey into 1.0. We'd recommend playing on PC to get the full experience.
[h3][b]Will progress carry on from the demo?[/b][/h3]
Progress will not carry over from the demo/playtests, so you'll need to start from the beginning.
[h3][b]What content is coming to the 1.0 launch? [/b][/h3]
We’re working on our roadmap to launch as we speak and we’re aiming to share something with you very soon showing the vision of REKA. Expect new quests, continued story, more furniture items, new features such as crafting, and of course bug fixing!
Going into Early Access allows us to work with you to create a game we hope you’ll love. Your feedback is so important to us, so if there’s something you really want to see, please let us know! To leave us feedback, we're most active on Discord, but we do check all our social media, as well as our Steam forums.
If there’s anything else you’d like to find out, please ask away in the comments!
A [b]big thank you[/b] for all your continued support. You’ve been such a wonderful community, and we can’t wait to finally share our game with you. 🔮
